Tefi Vintage Lab - Maccheroni Bros - American Voiced Dual Overdrive
The Maccheroni Bros Dual Overdrive is a very versatile drive with a huge gain range. It can produce soaring leads to snarling edge of breakup sounds. The two channels, while in the same vein, have a very different feel and attack. Fred is a little more smooth with a vocal mid range while Mike has an edge that is perfect for rhythm playing. The Contour control is usable across its entire sweep and is excellent for fine-tuning to suit whatever amp you use. If you're chasing a unique sounding drive pedal with a flexible gain range, the TeFi Vintage Maccheroni Bros is the place to look!
Maccheroni Bros is a dual overdrive consisting of two distinct circuits, designed to create a wide variety of modern versatile American sounds. The two channels are called Fred and Mike, both Italo-American bricklayers with very different personalities.
- FredĀ is lanky and placid, the āgoodā brother. This channel is based on the proprietary PCN circuit finely calibrated to this role. It gives a creamy sound and dynamic overdrive with sweet midrange sustain that favors a Legato technique.
- Mike, stout and short-tempered, the āindomitableā brother, produces the rock sound obtainable from a tube amp pulled at full throttle. This channel provides good sustain and presence with clear attack of every note played. Its circuit is based on a J-Fet stadium, combined with other circuits designed to obtain the best overall sonic performance.
Features
TEFI Vintage Lab created this dual overdrive for musicians that need a wide variety of modern American overdrive sounds. You can adjust Fred for delicate distortions and Mike for the more aggressive kind, but their roles can also be switched for maximum versatility.
