OVERDRIVE PEDAL

USER’S GUIDE

Congratulations, and thank you for your purchase of the Seymour Duncan 805 Overdrive™ Pedal!

The 805 is a very transparent, classic Overdrive pedal designed using the legendary 808 chip as a

starting point but with an expanded gain range and 3-band active EQ that is not commonly found

in 808 style overdrive pedals.

The gain range extends from 8dB to 36dB, allowing for a wide range of overdrive options from

mild boost to saturated lead gain . The active EQ circuit is designed to allow players full access to

be able to ﬁne-tune all elements of the low, mid and high frequency content.

Typical applications for the 805 Overdrive include:

• Use for frequency contouring. Set up a frequency response that works well for

saturated overdrive sounds.

• Use to boost level into single channel or clean amps to push them into overdrive and

create essentially two channels.

• Use the pedal’s own smooth distortion to create a rich, saturated tone even at lower

volume levels, with amps that don’t have separate gain and master knobs.

HOW IT WORKS

1 Level - Sets the overall level of your signal. With

the wide gain range available you can dial in the Level

based on how much crunch you dial in with the Drive

knob. The cleaner (lower) the gain, the higher the Level

should be and vice versa.

2 Drive - Regulates the amount of gain the 805

Overdrive is putting out. Low settings will provide a

very slightly overdriven, boosted tone. Increasing the

Drive pushes the front end of your amp harder, and

depending on the output of your pickups will start to

add some rich distortion anywhere from 9 o’clock for

higher-output humbuckers, to 11-12o’clock for the lower

output, more vintage type pickups. Gain range on the

805 Overdrive is a versatile 8dB to 36dB providing a

wide, ﬂexible tonal palette.

3 Bass - Active control provides +/- 11dB of boost or

cut at 90hz. Turn clockwise for thunderous low end or

to fatten up an open-back cabinet, counter-clockwise

to clean up closed-back cabinets that may be too

bass-heavy for the venue or style of music.

4 Mid - Active +/-11dB of boost or cut at 750hz.

From 12 o’clock, turn clockwise to boost the

mids for more presence, counter-clockwise

to cut the mids for a more scooped tone.

HOW IT WORKS (cont.)

5 Treble - Active +/-12dB of boost or cut at 2.12khz. From 12 o’clock, turn clockwise to boost

the highs, counter-clockwise to cut the treble available at your ﬁngertips.

6 Status LED - Indicates when the 805 Overdrive is active. LED is on when the unit is engaged,

off when in true bypass mode.

7 True Bypass footswitch - Removes the circuit from your guitar’s signal via a hardwired

connection from the input jack to the output jack.

8 Output Jack - Run a cable to the input of your amp or to the next effect in your chain.

9 Input Jack - Plug in your guitar or other pedal cable here.

Power Jack - We designed this pedal to be convenient. You can use any 9V to 18V regulated

DC adapter (negative polarity center terminal).

Easy access Battery door (located on back panel) - When it is not in use, save your

battery life by removing your guitar cable from the input jack.

LET’S GET STARTED!

1. Start with the unit in bypass mode (LED off) and the Bass, Mid, Treble, and Drive at 12

o’clock and Level at lowest setting. Set your amp level appropriately.

2. Turn on the 805 Overdrive by pressing the footswitch – the LED will come on when it’s

active.

3. Bring the Level control up to desired volume, then start experimenting with the gain

control. As you add gain to your signal, adjust EQ to desired tone.

4. Close eyes, smile, rock out in bliss.

SAMPLE SETTINGS

The 805 Overdrive can produce a huge range of tones from gentle boost to rich, saturated

overdrive. The settings below and on the next page are great starting points.

Level Drive

Subtle Boost

With the Drive control fully counter-clockwise, the 805

Overdrive acts as a signal booster with 8dB of gain, adding

more life and sparkle to your tone along with the flexibility of

further contouring your sound with the active 3-band EQ. In

this setup you may just want to leave it on all the time.

Scooped Mid

Setting the Mid control around 10 o’clock gives a bit of a scoop

to the normally mid-range predominant punch, accentuating

the beef and clarity for both picking and chunking. The Drive

control around the 11 o’clock position gives you control with

both your volume control and playing intensity, ranging from

sparkly clean to fat crunch when you dig in.

Valve Howler (Thank you, Mr. Thesarus)

Push your amp’s front-end into overdrive, with some

additional rich, tasty grit from the pedal. The personality of

the tone will depend upon your specific amp and settings, so

let your curiosity be your guide!

Keith Merrow recommends:

“I have the following setting, which I use for a tight modern

metal sound in front of a high gain amp.”
