Bogner

Brutal Bogner gain of the highest order, now in a compact pedal.

In 2001 Bogner launched the Uberschall amplifier. More than a decade later, Bogner still hand builds each one in Los Angeles, California. Dubbed "Armageddon in a Box," the ferocious Uberschall pedal derives its thunderous hi-gain tones from the notoriously brutal Bogner Uberschall amplifier. While the Uberschall pedal offers a significant range of classic lower and medium gains, its true nature comes forth when delivering savage, face-melting, high-gain aggression.

Reinhold designed the Uberschall pedal with five discrete Class A gain stages and with diode clipping, mirroring circuitry of the Uberschall amplifier’s high-gain channel. This revolutionary approach provides clarity, touch sensitivity and note separation never before achieved in distortion pedals.

The Uberschall pedal is powered by a standard 9V battery or 9V power supply. Reinhold’s advanced circuitry internally elevates the voltage a substantially higher level. This higher voltage provides a greater dynamic range which closely resembles the feel of the Uberschall amplifier’s legendary tube design.

Features

  • True bypass
  • Boost function with independently lit volume and gain controls
  • Master Controls: Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass and Volume
  • Jacks: input, output and remote
  • Remote jack allows control of the on/off and boost functions via a remote switching unit
  • Low Battery Indicator: LEDs blink when battery voltage drops below critical threshold

Add the Uberschall's legendary high-gain sound to your rig. Order now.

    Comments about Bogner Uberschall Distortion/Boost Guitar Effects Pedal:

    This is literally like a Bogner Uberschall amplifier in a box. This isn't just a distortion pedal, it completely redefines your tone. I have owned all sorts of metal distortion pedals, including the PisdiYAUw0t, the line6 ubermetal, boss metalzone, boss metalcore, mxrFullbore, etc...None of them even come close to holding a candle to this pedal. All other pedals simply add massive amounts of gain, completely washing away the tone and making it virtually impossible to cut through the mix with other musicians playing. This is the only modern distortion pedal in which I can hear my tone cut through the mix and never lose sight of every note in a chord. Granted, this pedal does not have massive amounts of sludgy gain, per se, but honestly if you think that you need more gain than this then nobody is going to want to listen to your guitar anyway. This pedal is perfectly sufficient to sound like Meshuggah, Tool, or even Pantera and it is versatile enough to be super responsive to your voulme knob, granting you the ability to access a slightly overdriven sound instead of full on distortion. This is the best and most worthy distortion pedal I've ever played with, unmatched versatility and tonal characteristics makes this pedal way more than just a stompbox, it's like having an extra amp on your pedal board. However, to achieve the best results, I highly recommend stacking this pedal with another overdrive pedal in front of it. I have found no other pedal better than the X0tic RCBooster, it is the best for placing right before distortion pedals as it completely enhances your tone as well as provides a perfect subtle boost, not too much but just right. Oh yeah, and when you squeal the strings with the Uberschall pedal, your ears will bleed.

      Comments about Bogner Uberschall Distortion/Boost Guitar Effects Pedal:

      I was really impressed with the first reviews and sound samples I've seen over so I decided to give this one a try, which came to be a good idea.

      It does have all the qualities I was looking for (Fluid and organic low-to-high gain distortion) with solid construction and friendly interface. I was interest in using it as main distortion pedal when not using a full amp setting (5150, ENGL, Hughes & Kettner are my choices in that) and it delivered a very good result. I still think it could go a little bit farther in terms of gain and that's why I've not given a 5 stars. I mean, there's lot of drive and gain to play from blues, to rock, hard, heavy and etc, but there's lack of punch and headroom on that process when you start putting much gain. Some harmonics and sustain didn't work as I was expecting. For instande, with some twist and turns on a Fulltone OCD and a good axe you can deliver a more dense, rich and consistent sound (at least for my liking) with same versability, solid construction etc.

      Overall a great pedal with amazing organic and decent distortion sounds from low-to-high gain.
