MXR ZW-44 Wylde Overdrive

So I was looking at a few Zakk Wylde videos/interviews this morning and thought I’d talk about the Zakk Wylde ZW-RR Overdrive pedal by MXR. I think ODs are great to have and I wanted to take a closer look at this one.

Here is the official info:

The MXR ZW-44 Wylde Overdrive Pedal performs like Zakk. Whether on his groundbreaking work with Ozzy Osbourne or with his own Black Label Society, Zakk Wylde’s guitar playing is loud, tough, and relentless. Zakk’s take-no-prisoners attitude extends to his quest for tone, too. His signature ZW-44 overdrive pedal will turn your clean amp into a heavy, chunky, crunch machine. Or, use it like Zakk does and kick it in front of a dirty amp for a screaming, sustaining lead tone. 3 simple controls—output, tone, and drive—make getting up and running easy, so you can concentrate on your chops.

Of course jimdunlopusa has a good video on the pedal. I like that they went with similar riffs to hear the difference.

You can pickup up the MXR ZW-44 Wylde Overdrive for $99.99 at Musician’s Friend.
