The KHDK No.1 Overdrive is a pedal designed to replicate the sound of an overdriven tube amp. It features a double gain control, allowing for a wide range of distortion from a clean boost to a powerful rhythm or lead tone. The pedal has a HI/LO switch that offers warm, tube-like boost and subtle crunchy overdrive on the low setting, and adds saturation, sustain, low end, and compression on the high setting. The BASS control enhances the low end, while the TREBLE control acts as a passive, natural-sounding low-pass filter.
Technical Specifications:
- Bypass mode: True Bypass
- Dimensions: 120 x 65 x 40 mm (Width x Depth x Height)
- Input Connector: Standard ¼” jack – mono/TS
- Output Connector: Standard ¼” jack – mono/TS

The pedal is powered by a single 9V battery, which can be accessed by unscrewing the bottom plate of the pedal enclosure. Alternatively, an external 9V DC power supply can be used.
The No.1 Overdrive utilizes KHDK's original true bypass circuit using a special blend of solid-state and mosfet technology. It is proudly crafted and quality-tested in Kentucky, USA.
