The Cerulean Amp Overdrive is a highly sought-after pedal that is based on the iconic Marshall Bluesbreaker pedal. Originally produced from 1991 to 1999, the Cerulean Amp Overdrive became a legend in its own right and served as the foundation for many boutique pedals, including the Analogman King of Tone.
In 1995, Marshall shifted production from England to Korea and made some modifications to the circuit of the Bluesbreaker pedal. These changes included increasing the gain and reducing the bass. The Cerulean project incorporates a switch that allows users to toggle between the original circuit and the modified version, enabling them to hear and compare the differences.
Additionally, the Cerulean Amp Overdrive features expanded clipping options inspired by the Analogman King of Tone. Users can choose between soft clipping (stock), hard clipping, or no clipping (boost mode), providing a versatile range of tones.
To further enhance the pedal’s capabilities, an internal DIP switch has been added to select between three different gain range settings. This feature allows users to adjust the overall gain range of the pedal, providing even more tonal possibilities.
The Cerulean V2 is a complete overhaul of the original Cerulean pedal. It incorporates features from the JHS Morning Glory and the Presence trimmer from the King of Tone, resulting in an updated and improved version of the pedal. The original Cerulean pedal is no longer available, but the legacy 1590B version of the project remains in stock.
For those interested in the Analogman King of Tone, it is available as the Theseus, while the Prince of Tone is available as the Achilles. These pedals offer similar tones and features to their Analogman counterparts.
