Jackson Audio The Optimist Classic

The Optimist is a collaborative pedal designed by Jackson Audio and Cory Wong, containing dual overdrive circuits with their own volume, tone, and gain controls, plus a three-band active EQ. The Optimist combines a Klon-style overdrive with a transparent overdrive tailor-suited for boosting and complementing stacked overdrive tones. But add in the 3-band Baxandall EQ, and you'll find studio-style tone sculpting that puts even more versatility into this wonderful pedal. And if you need straightforward MIDI capabilities to remotely control The Optimist, you'll find that here, too. After playing this pedal, you too will feel optimistic about the future of guitar tones!
