PRS Guitars Horsemeat Transparent Overdrive

I’ve been playing PRS Guitars in some form for about 20 years now, and they remain, hands-down, the favorite guitars I’ve ever had the pleasure of owning. From my first early 2000s Santana SE all the way up to my gorgeous Special 22 Semi-Hollowbody, each one creates its own unique tone, and they have all played as smoothly as can be. Today, we’re venturing into another section of the PRS world – PEDALS, and we’re starting with the Horsemeat Transparent Overdrive…

The Horsemeat Transparent Overdrive is meant to enhance your overall sound without coloring your tone, adding a harmonic midrange richness, and boosting your low and high-end frequencies – all while giving you more available headroom. This pedal sounds great wherever the dials are turned, really – start with all the dials at noon and tweak from there to find the perfect setting. Exploration and having fun are the keys to unlocking this beast.

This pedal features a robust EQ section as well, so you can dial in your perfect tone, and has a wide range of gain on tap, too. Depending on the setting, Horsemeat can be used as a clean boost, straight overdrive, or even enhance your amplifier’s distortion by slightly pushing the front end of the amplifier’s preamp section.

Like all pieces of PRS gear, these pedals were created to be high-end pieces of audio gear, designed by PRS Guitars in Stevensville, Maryland and proudly made in the USA. Considerable time was spent comparing available electronic components, and through-hole soldering enables PRS to utilize the best-sounding parts. PRS pedals are true bypass, so you can stay connected to your amp. When they are off, they are out of your signal chain, and the tone of your instrument can be heard without coloration.
