Description

The Blue by Volta Custom is a top tier overdrive pedal designed for guitarists who seek high transparency, versatility, and a rich dynamic range. With its advanced touch sensitivity, The Blue goes from crisp cleans to full on hard rock tones, all while preserving the unique character of the player’s instrument. The Blue by Volta Custom responds intuitively to changes in picking strength, allowing guitarists to explore a wide spectrum of saturation and harmonics, all with a simple twist of the volume knob.

Equipped with comprehensive controls, The Blue by Volta Custom lets players fine tune each aspect of their sound. Its two band EQ offers flexible bass and treble adjustments that can be set flat for a neutral tone or dialed in for warmth and clarity. Additionally, the BODY, GREASE, HEAD, and SHEEN controls provide unique tonal enhancements—BODY adds body and compression, GREASE fattens the tone, HEAD adjusts the gain character from warm to modern, and SHEEN boosts upper harmonics for added brilliance.

The Blue by Volta Custom features both a Normal and a Boost channel, activated independently via two footswitches. The Normal channel provides core overdrive and EQ controls, while the Boost channel offers additional pre gain and post level adjustments, perfect for lead passages or extra drive. Each channel has its own level settings, ensuring seamless transitions between rhythm and lead tones, and the active LED indicators make it easy to check the status of each channel at a glance.

Built with high quality, all analogue circuitry, The Blue by Volta Custom maintains the purity of the guitar’s signal path through true bypass. This isolates the pedal when bypassed, preventing any unwanted colouration of the tone. Every unit is carefully hand built to order, with meticulous calibration and testing for consistent performance. The pedal’s robust metal enclosure, eye catching graphics, and colour reflect its premium quality, built for durability on stage or in the studio. Input and output jacks are conveniently side mounted for easy integration into pedalboards.

The Blue by Volta Custom is powered by a standard 9V power supply (not included), ensuring compatibility with pedalboard setups. Each pedal comes with a comprehensive warranty, and every order includes a personal touch—a small gift from the creators to show appreciation for your support.
