Seafoam’s Harpoon mini pedal is a whale of an overdrive
Touch-sensitive drive boasts a three-way switch for increased midrange tailoring
The new Harpoon Overdrive from Seafoam Pedals packs a lot of power and versatility into a small footprint.
The touch-sensitive overdrive pedal is designed to clean up or distort depending on playing dynamics, with the standard level and drive knobs joined by a three-way range switch that tailors your tone to desired high-mid, narrow-mid or low-mid voicings.
There’s also 15db of boost courtesy of the internal voltage doubling as well as a console-quality preamp.
The Harpoon is available for $179. For more information or to purchase, head to Seafoam Pedals.
