KORG’S SUPER EASY-TO-BUILD PEDAL KIT REQUIRES NO SOLDERING

- WORDS: MICHAEL ASTLEY-BROWN

In addition to Vox’s Valvenergy pedals, parent brand Korg has also utilised Nutube technology for the Nu:Tekt OD-S Overdrive kit, which requires no soldering to build. Such should make for an easy build with no risk of anything going wrong – provided you follow the instructio­ns to a T, of course.

Once assembled, the pedal features two gain knobs, one of which adjusts the input volume and the other the gain of the Nutube, offering amp-style flexibilit­y. There’s also a switch to choose between two overdrive types (low/high) and true bypass switching. Most intriguing­ly, Korg notes that the circuitboa­rd features a mod-friendly layout, allowing you to create your own design.
