Behaved – lower-gain overdrive

Bad – the original Bad Monkey circuit
-
Badder – higher-gain overdrive
The Barrel control blends two circuits in parallel, while Troop mode combines all three for an even bigger drive sound.
Grunt controls the low-frequency EQ and Screech shapes the mid/high range, giving you plenty of control for different guitars, basses and amplifiers.
Reversible StagePlate
DOD's reversible StagePlate has a rubber skid surface on one side and hook material on the other, making it easy to switch between floor use and pedalboard mounting.
