Bass, Mid, Treble, and Presence controls
Lets you adjust the pedal’s tonal response directly.

Independent shopping perspective
Friedman’s Dirty Shirley Overdrive puts a broad rock-oriented gain range into a compact pedal format. Set the gain low and raise the volume for a dirty boost into an amp, or add gain for a thicker, grittier drive. Bass, Mid, Treble, and Presence controls give you direct tonal adjustment, while the side-mounted Tight switch reins in the low end for a more punchy response. It can run into a clean amp or push an already overdriven one.
