Here’s what Fender say:

Dial in responsive, tube-like drive tones with the Hammertone® Breakup Drive. The perfect contender for an always-on pedal, this JFET based overdrive is designed with one focus in mind: replicating the dynamic response of hot tubes right at the edge of saturation. Two selectable clipping modes tailor the drive’s character between light breakup and low gain overdrive, each supplying an expressive response that cleans up with lighter picking and breaks up more the harder you strum. An expansive tone control and switchable pre-gain mid boost provide powerful frequency shaping tools to hone your final tone. From flavoring your core clean tone to delivering dynamic overdrive on tap, the Hammertone Breakup Drive has you covered.

Boost

A boost pedal does one simple thing brilliantly — it makes your signal louder, stronger, and more alive. Whether you’re pushing a valve amp into natural breakup, lifting a solo above the band, or adding a touch more presence to your core tone, a clean boost gives you extra headroom without changing your character.

Use it at the front of your chain to drive other pedals harder, or after your gain stages to raise volume without adding distortion. Subtle or powerful, transparent or slightly coloured, a boost is one of the most useful tools on any pedalboard — small box, big difference.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

Overdrive

Like a golden layer of melted cheese — warm, gooey, and just put it all over. It adds just the right amount of richness and grit, turning a clean signal into something smooth and savoury. Designed to mimic the natural breakup of a tube amp pushed to its sweet spot, overdrive delivers the flavour of classic rock and blues in every bite. From creamy mid-gain warmth to crisp edge-of-breakup sparkle, it’s the comfort food of guitar tone — simple, satisfying, and endlessly versatile. Whether it’s a mild crunch or a full-bodied roar, overdrive is where good taste begins.
