New DOD Badder Monkey Overdrive Pedal

More Circuits, More Mischief, More Tone

The monkey is out of the cage, and this time, it’s a little bit meaner. DigiTech’s cult-favorite Bad Monkey® overdrive pedal has swung back into the spotlight not as a simple reissue, but as a fully evolved creature from DOD®: the Badder Monkey™. With the original Bad Monkey circuit still at its core and two brand-new circuits, Behaved and Badder, joining the fray, this pedal gives players the power to go from mild-mannered overdrive to mischievous, unpredictable tones that are downright bananas.

The real magic happens with DOD’s patent-pending 360-degree Barrel Control, which lets musicians blend any two circuits at a time, resulting in hundreds of unique overdrive combinations. And if that’s not enough monkey business, a three-position toggle adds even more tonal tricks. In the UP position, the Bad circuit plays nicely in-phase with the others; DOWN, it flips out-of-phase to create wild harmonic shenanigans; and CENTER activates Troop Mode, where all three circuits pile on at once. In Troop Mode, the Barrel Control steps aside, letting the full troop roar together.

The Badder Monkey™ also introduces DOD’s patent-pending reversible StagePlate™, a simple but brilliant way to keep your pedal grounded—or attached to your board. The skid pad side keeps it from sliding off the stage; while flipping it over reveals a hook pad that locks onto your pedalboard in a snap. Switching between the two is as easy as removing four screws, flipping the plate, and tightening it back up—a simple solution for every rig and stage setup.
