MXR EG74 Eric Gales Raw Dawg Overdrive Pedal Overview
Eric Gales aka Raw Dawg is a prominent blues-rock guitarist, and this pedal was designed with his sound in mind. This custom circuit pedal is based on a classic overdrive and also has been customised to provide a more balanced midrange and a sweet, natural high gain sound even when cranked all the way up. The three-knob interface keeps it simple - Output, Tone and Drive, and experimenting with these will let you get just the right tone. The compact mini housing makes it easy to fit onto your pedalboard, and the look is completed with a white on black Raw Dawg graphic to mirror the pedal’s character.
Overview by Dunlop
Eric Gales serves up some of the tastiest licks in the business, and he needs to have just the right seasoning on hand when it’s time to turn up the heat. The MXR Raw Dawg Overdrive is designed to do just that. A custom circuit, this pedal is based on a classic OD famous for its grit and crunch—but we balanced out the midrange and bumped up the gain for a sweeter, more natural sound even when cranked. The simple three-knob interface of Output, Tone, and Drive controls is all you need to perfect your own recipes. In an MXR mini housing, the Raw Dawg Overdrive delivers tons of sonic flavour in a pedalboard-friendly package.
