The DOD YJM308 Yngwie Malmsteen Overdrive delivers unmatched powerhouse shredder tone!
To meet the exacting sound requirements of Yngwie Malmsteen, DOD worked with the virtuoso himself and created the amazing tone and overdrive qualities of the YJM308. The basis for this tone is a vintage DOD 250 that Yngwie has used for years. The development process required rigorous electronic testing and real-time analysis of various overdrive and EQ combinations before they finally were able to match Yngwie's signature sound. The YJM308 features Gain and Level controls and a bypass footswitch.

When I was a kid in Sweden back in 1978, I bought my first DOD 250 pedal. This preamp overdrive pushing the front end of my tube amps has been a key element to my tone ever since. Like most handwired vintage equipment of the era, there is some variety in the sound between my different old gray pedals. DOD took my favorite pedal and used that as the reference to create the YJM308. Now I can always get my trademark tone and keep my original vintage gear safe at home. More than that, this new pedal sounds so good it is what I am using these days. I have not hooked up my old 250s at all recently. I am using the YJM308 for everything, including my new album. Not to mention it looks cool.

No LED, But Really Good Otherwise
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Nice metal box. Feels heavy, seems tough.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I haven't owned the pedal long enough to comment on the reliability.
General
Your general opinion of this product.
As far as $30 stomp boxes go, you are definitely getting more than your money's worth with this guy. My only complaint is that it doesn't have an LED to indicate whether it is on or off.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Maybe a little on the brighter side on tone.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Looks great. Better than I expected for a $30 pedal.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
