DOD started in 1973, producing pedals until they were bought out by DigiTech’s parent company in 1990. Occupying a similar place in the market to MXR, its stompboxes were most commonly found in the US, using the marketing tagline of ‘America’s Pedal’. In its range was a set of staples like drive, chorus and delay that, while hampered by a somewhat dodgy footswitch, remain popular today.
While a number of the units were clones, copies or adaptations of other circuits, several highly original units were built in the 1990s, becoming cult favourites. Many of the ’90s units were designed by Jason Lamb, earning the unofficial name of Lamb-series.
