Fat Boost
Low gain setting provides a powerful
boost whilst fattening your mid-range slightly and greatly increasing presence.
This setting works best with tube amps, although solid state amps can benefit
also :
Dynamic Overdrive
At
medium gain settings, the American Overdrive really shines: it allows for the
detail and dynamics in your playing to shine through. Push the strings hard to
get some grind, and play lightly to keep things clean.

Higher Gain / Distortion
At
higher gain settings the American Overdrive adds its own distortion to the mix,
become a bit more of a rocker, and is a great choice for both single coil and
humbucker equipped guitars that need a hot, dirty, grinding texan
sound.
