The MXR EVH 5150 Overdrive brings the legendary sound and feel of Eddie Van Halen's iconic amp tones to a compact pedal format. Developed in collaboration with Eddie himself, it delivers everything from harmonically rich crunch to tight, articulate high-gain saturation with remarkable clarity and responsiveness. A powerful 3-band EQ, onboard noise gate, and dedicated boost switch provide extensive tonal control, making it easy to tailor the pedal to virtually any guitar and amplifier setup. Built for both stage and studio use, the EVH 5150 Overdrive captures the aggression, sustain, and unmistakable character that helped define generations of rock guitar tone.
The MXR® design team has collaborated with Eddie Van Halen to deliver a full range of powerful saturation and hyper-driven tones right at your feet. The resulting EVH 5150™ Overdrive joins hand-adjusted multi-stage MOSFETs with a full complement of controls to deliver overdriven tube-like tones and exceptional sonic flexibility through a wide variety of amps and speaker cabinets.
Whether on stage or in the studio, the EVH 5150 Overdrive's controls dial up the whole spectrum—from Eddie's groundbreaking early classic tones to the high gain, super-articulate sound he later used. Output and Gain controls set your volume and distortion levels, while the 3-band passive tone stack EQ section shapes your sound to taste. The Boost switch kicks the 5150 Overdrive into high gear with extra gain and compression, and the Gate control—powered by the Smart Gate® circuit—tames unwanted noise.
The EVH 5150 Overdrive features true bypass switching and comes in a road-worthy housing emblazoned with custom EVH artwork.
