NAMM 2018: Outlaw FX Cactus Juice 2-Mode Overdrive

If you are a fan of inexpensive compact guitar pedals, then you probably already know about Outlaw effects. They hit the scene a couple years ago and they have been expanding their line steadily since. Also, if you like your effects western themed, you are defiantly a fan of Outlaw. The Cactus Juice Overdrive is a pretty typical mid-humped Scream-type pedal. The one thing that sets this pedal apart is the switch. Labeled Juiced/Normal, what the switch actually does may be up for debate. But at least we get something more than another tube screamer clone. I'd like to put this next to my other TS pedals and see how it stands up.

From Effects Database:

Classic warm, creamy screamer-inspired drive is tonic for your tone
JUICED/NORMAL toggle switch offers additional versatility, with higher gain setting accessible with a flick of a switch:

• NORMAL: Traditionally warm and creamy breakup, great for rhythm parts, blues guitars, etc
• JUICED:  Ups the gain dosage to extra strength, and lets you tear through even the densest of mixes.

Level, Gain and Tone knobs give you complete control over your sound
