Perfect for players seeking rich, harmonics-filled overdrive tones, professional dynamics, and the versatility to fit any musical style with exceptional stacking capabilities.
Product Overview
The Southland Harmonic Overdrive represents the evolutionary advancement of Greer's highly regarded Lightspeed platform, specifically developed to provide more gain and enhanced harmonic content while maintaining the exceptional touch sensitivity and dynamics that define quality boutique overdrive pedals. Built with the philosophy of creating the ultimate overdrive experience, this pedal incorporates lessons learned from the Lightspeed's success while pushing the boundaries of what's possible in overdrive design.
The innovative dual-stage clipping architecture utilizes different diode types for each clipping stage, creating complex harmonic content and natural compression characteristics that respond beautifully to playing dynamics. The focused midrange avoids the annoying "hump" common in many overdrive pedals, while the extended presence range ensures cutting power without harshness. This carefully balanced frequency response makes the Southland exceptional for both solo work and ensemble playing.
The pedal's exceptional touch sensitivity and pick attack response create an organic playing experience where the overdrive reacts naturally to your technique, from gentle clean-up with lighter playing to rich saturation with aggressive attack. The specially selected drive chip takes the circuit to the next level, providing the harmonic richness and sustain that separates boutique overdrive from mass-produced alternatives. The Southland pairs exceptionally well with the Lightspeed for players seeking the ultimate two-stage overdrive system.
