Description

The Ludicrous Speed Overdrive is a very transparent and dynamic overdrive. In neutral position it does not change the signal, but adds only slight distortion. The tone pot works well, the drive knob works similar to a master volume knob of a tube amp.

This kit contains the pcb and all necessary parts. You can choose an enclosure, please select 3 knobs for 6,3mm shaft separately.

Amazing organic drive

The assembly was very straightforward. Clear instructions and not a complicated build. I have tried it so far with a filtertron telecaster and a p90 thinline and it sounds amazing! Incredibly easy to dial in an organic, touch sensitive breakup that cleans up nicely when rolling down the volume on the guitar. Tres cool!

Easy build, ludicrous close to the original

While the documentation is sparse, the build is really easy and straightforward with basic soldering skills. (Please, get a soldering iron with heat regulation and stop roasting PCBs to death!). The Musikding team has labeled all parts with their values, which is super convenient! I own a genuine Greer Lightspeed and they sound and react/feel ludicrously close. The minute difference in gain structure and frequency response is no bigger than the variations that occur within a production run of most pedals.

I can recommend this build, also as a beginner project.

Good quality PCB and components

Dont have an original to compare, but this drive brings clarity and definition to the signal. I prefer it at very low gain settings, as this seems to have the most natural bass. The interaction between all 3 pots is interesting.
