Here's what Fender say about the Smolder:

It’s tough to add overdrive to acoustic guitars—not only can it sound un-musical, it can also cause tone-destroying feedback. Designed specifically for use with acoustic instruments, the all-analog Smolder Acoustic Overdrive elegantly solves these issues with Fender know-how. To soften the bright attack of a piezo pickup we included a Pickup Compensation control that smooths out the highs. The Drive knob controls the amount of distortion, while 3-band EQ and Filter controls let you shape your sound to taste. We even included cabinet simulation to add some flavor when plugged into a full-range acoustic amp or PA.

Designed by our in-house team of experts, the Smolder Acoustic Overdrive is an all-original Fender circuit. The chassis is crafted from lightweight, durable anodized aluminum, and the Amp Jewel LED gives your pedalboard the classic Fender look. The switchable LED-backlit knobs show your control settings on a dark stage at a glance.

Overdrive Pedals

Overdrive pedals use soft or hard clipping to add breakup, harmonic density and sustain while usually retaining more pick response than heavier distortion. A low-gain circuit can act as an always-on preamp or push an amplifier; a higher-gain design may supply its own compressed voice. Gain, tone, bass, presence, output and clipping options decide how the pedal stacks with other drives. The same pedal can sound open into a clean valve amp and congested into a saturated preamp, so judge it at the level and with the speakers it will actually meet.

Acoustic

Voiced for piezo, magnetic or microphone-based acoustic instruments, with attention to pickup impedance, attack, body resonance and feedback control. It may cover preamp, EQ, compression or ambience.

Analogue

Uses continuous analogue circuitry for some or all of the audio path, so clipping, filtering or modulation arises from physical components rather than sampled algorithms. Check the exact signal path.
