Sinvertek Invincible Overdrive Precious Set (SHOD A+B) Unboxing - First Impressions

[@GuitarTonePro]

Andrew here! I just wanted to clarify that I goofed in this video and mixed up which pedal is what. The SHODA is the Klon based pedal and the SHODB is the Pre-amp OD Gain Stage. No manual comes with the pedals and the site lists the pedals in B then A order as well as tells you to run B (the preamp) into A (Klon) which is backwards of how a Klon and amp would be used.

Thanks for doing these. These pedals are really underserved regarding youtube demos.

[@GuitarTonePro]

You’re welcome. They are just getting delivered to people so maybe more will show up. Then again they are very limited and quite expensive, so maybe not.

Nice video andrew! Looking forward to your next video on the stacked pedals. As a standalone pedal which of the 2 do you prefer?

[@GuitarTonePro]

Depends on the application. Into a clean amp the B has more gain an is somewhat similar to the MGAT series in a simplified standard overdrive package. Like a high gain Marshall tone. Into any driven/lead channel amp, the volume of the A with its EQ curve does something pretty special that so far I’ve only really gotten from a Kingsley tube based boost.

Just got the less special edition set. I'm loving it but I don't have much experience with all the od/klon and preamp pedals out there. So I'm looking forward to hearing your opinion

[@GuitarTonePro]

Awesome! I’m curious how different the “precious” edition really is as already the SHODA is only marginally better than a Tumnus. I can already see the difficulty in comparisons to come since recording and then uploading to KZbin is going lose a good bit of the difference.

@GuitarTonePro I had the same thought about how different the precious vs regular are. I've got an older ckk scream honey, it's similar to the shoda set, but the shoda def sounds better. So maybe Wu really is improving the design with each iteration. The tumnus seems like it has the bar pretty high for this type of pedal.

[@GuitarTonePro]

The Tumnus is great because it has extra low mids like the SHODA does. I’ve compared it to 3 Centaurs, a KTR and a couple Archer and other clones. The SHOD is the first pedal of this type to have something the Tumnus doesn’t which is high harmonic content that blooms as the note rings much like the lead channel of a TS-1.
