MXR Tom Morello RATM Power 50 Amplifier Overdrive Distortion Guitar Pedal

Despite his mastery at creating unique guitar tones and sonic textures, Tom Morello has relied on one single amplifier rig for over 30 years. Morello’s favored amp head, cabinet, and speakers have fueled his sonic style on 20-plus studio albums, and it’s all been lovingly re-created in the MXR Tom Morello Power 50 Overdrive. Delivering amp-style distortion and tone-shaping capabilities, the Power 50 Overdrive will serve you well whether you use it as an amp-in-a-pedal solution direct to a speaker emulator, or as a front end to send your favorite amplifier into a fit of rage.

Harmonically rich effects loop for iconic Morello tones

The Power 50 Overdrive’s built-in effects loop is configured just like it is on Morello’s amp of choice. The effects loop injects external effects pedals before the presence and tone circuits, giving your effects added harmonic bite. It’s the key to conjuring Morello’s signature wah tone — placing your wah in front of the Power 50 Overdrive offers a mellower effect; placing it in the effects loop gives it a more aggressive edge without sacrificing tonal balance.
