The MXR DD30 Dookie Drive Pedal 30th Anniversary overdrive pedal is a tribute to the unmistakable sound of Green Day's groundbreaking album, Dookie. Released to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the album's debut, this special-edition pedal features a striking new finish and captures the gritty, punchy overdrive tones that defined Billie Joe Armstrong's legendary guitar sound.
The MXR Dookie Drive Pedal captures the tones of those amps in a single pedal so that you can dial in your own variations of that famous Dookie sound. We borrowed his amps so that the MXR team could carefully analyze all the sonic qualities that make them sound so darn good. After much analysis and A/B testing, our engineers rebuilt the amps from scratch in pedal circuit form and fit them into a single housing. The High Gain and Crunch Gain sections each have their own controls, while the Blend control allows you to mix them together just like Green Day did in the studio. If you want some extra scoop in the midrange of the overall output signal, just hit the Scoop switch.
