DigiTech DOD 250-X Overdrive Preampifier

The DigiTech DOD 250-X is the 10th generation of the legendary DOD OD250 overdrive preamp, designed for guitarists seeking classic tone and modern flexibility. With three distinct clipping modes and a robust aluminum body, it blends vintage grit with modern usability.

Featuring three selectable drive modes - SILICON (classic symmetrical clipping), ASYM (asymmetrical distortion), and LIFT (diode-less boost) - this pedal gives you versatile tonal options from clean boost to saturated overdrive. It retains the familiar Gain and Level controls while adding new sonic possibilities.

Compact yet powerful, the 250-X offers true hard-wire bypass, 18V-tolerant circuitry, and road-ready construction. It is ideal for players who want one pedal that can cover multiple overdrive roles on stage or in the studio.
