Get Your Hands on Three Decades of Super-Rare ODS Tone
Universal Audio wore out the Rolodex to get exclusive access to numerous original Overdrive Special amps spanning three essential eras of these mythical tone monsters. From the 1970s Santa Cruz models that brought the ODS into the light to later LA iterations in the ‘80s and ‘90s used on countless legendary sessions, Enigmatic ‘82 puts the sound of these fabled amps at your fingertips.
Play Essential Rock & Jazz Modes
A hallmark of the original amps, Enigmatic '82's Jazz and Rock modes let you enjoy shimmery cloud-like cleans to creamy overdrive that blooms with dynamics.
