Silk Worm






I was asked a while back to make a low to medium gain, smooth-liquid overdrive .
So I came up with the Silk Worm Overdrive.
I was pretty happy with the results but never leaving well enough alone, I dug in to making a small Real estate version and doing so, started tweaking things.
While not light years from the first one, as they say, the Devil is in the details or in this case - the creamy smooth sustainy goodness is in the details. Slight adjustments to the eq and negative feedback, I feel it’s right where I want it.
What we have now is a drive that
is excellent for super smooth lead playing and equally well for chord work. The tone knob never gets congested on the lows and the highs are never shrill.
It has a nice midrange push with none of that “Cocked Wah” sound.
It has enough gain to do medium (medium is subjective)gain into a clean amp.
It blends nice into a dirty amp without taking over the tone.
Also nice for smoothing out a fuzz.
