BLUE STAR RTS PCB

The ready-to-solder PCB for the Blue Star Overdrive, a beautiful, mild overdrive for connoisseurs of fine distortion.

About the effect

The Blue Star (formerly called Blue Magic) is aimed at players who want a smooth, mild overdrive rather than a wall of gain. Hear it for yourself: two sound samples recorded with a Stratocaster through the Blue Star, sample 1 and sample 2.
