Limited Batch of the New Jimmy Bower Signature Bower Power Overdrive Available Now at
In this video Jimmy shows us how he sets the Bower Power Overdrive and each of his main stage amps in EYEHATEGOD: The Randall RG100ES and the Ampeg SS-150.
Designed in collaboration with Nick Williams of Dunwich Amplification.
From the infamous crucible of the New Orleans underworld, channeling the raw anguish and scathing fury that defined a genre…
For the first time harness the quintessential sound of southern suffering with the all-new Jimmy Bower Signature Overdrive.
Take As Needed for Gain…
The Bower Power Overdrive is the combination of a classic op-amp overdrive and a solid state power amp boost. The pedal has a wide range of gain from edge of break-up, clean-ish boost to aggressive overdrive.
Drive levels for both the op-amp overdrive and the power amp boost are controlled independently using two gain controls: “Suffering” sets the gain of the op-amp overdrive, “Abuse” sets the gain of the power amp boost.
The power amp boost is designed to enhance low end, compensating for the typical low-end cut that is shaped early in the op-amp overdrive circuit. Additional EQ adjustment is achieved with an active tilt tone control that can further emphasize low end, darkening the overall sound or boosting upper-mids and treble.
The output signal level of the pedal is controlled with a master volume which is loud enough to further overdrive the input of other pedals or amp.
For the most authentic grief-stricken Jimmy Bower tone, be sure to play on your bridge pickup with your guitar’s volume knob at max and tone knob rolled all the way off.
The Power of the Riff Compels You!
