Description

Allow JustPedals to introduce the Electronic Audio Experiments Halberd V2 Overdrive Pedal

Founded in 2015 and hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, Electronic Audio Experiments are more than just a pedal manufacturer, they are "an exploration in sound and texture via electronics". The Electronic Audio Experiments Halberd is a transistor overdrive circuit designed to deliver the greatest possible dynamic range and clarity. Rich in harmonic content, this medium-gain pedal produces a thick, full sounding overdrive courtesy of a dozen transistors working in perfect harmony. Tonally, the Halberd sits somewhere between a blown-up tweed amp and an overloaded console for a sound that feels familiar but refreshingly unique too.

Controls

  • Pre – This sets the overall signal gain. Lower settings impart light compression, then increasing amounts of clipping up to a fuzzy overdrive, depending on the Voice and Depth settings.
  • Depth – This is an adjustable low frequency shelving filter at the input, and is very interactive with the setting of the Pre control. It can be thought of as a second gain control affecting low frequencies only.
  • Tone –  This is an adjustable high shelf cut at the output, helpful for taming harsher frequencies especially at high gain settings.
  • Post – This sets the overall output level, and is buffered for full transparency at all signal levels. 
  • Voice – 3 position switch to set the overall drive character
  • Clang (up) – Increases gain in the upper midrange, for an aggressive sound and a sharp attack
  • Standard (middle) – Moderate gain with a gentle mid push; identical to Halberd V1
  • Deep (down) – A full range gain boost with woolly saturation and a fuzzy note attack

Specifications

  • Bypass switching: Silent electronic switching with a Class A JFET buffer
  • Input impedance @ 1Khz: 1MΩ
  • Output impedance @ 1Khz: <1KΩ

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.
