Tommy Emmanuel on Onstage Curveballs, Recording Stories & Tone Philosophy

Inspired by the limited-edition DOD OD250-50th Anniversary model released last year, the 250-X (X representing the 10th iteration) offers the same three-position toggle switch function but in an imported, mass-produced model, at a more affordable price.

Operation is straightforward and intuitive. At its core, the 250-X retains the same Gain and Level control values and tapers as the original OD250, preserving the familiar feeling and response that players know and love. The three-position toggle switch expands its tonal range, offers Silicon symmetrical clipping for that iconic 250 sound, ASYM asymmetrical clipping for even-harmonic distortion, and LIFT mode, which removes diode clipping entirely from the signal path for a clean boost at moderate levels or a dirty boost at high levels as it drives the vintage-style LM741 op amp.

Built with an aluminum chassis and weighing in at only 8 ounces (250 grams), construction features true hard-wire bypass, modern 9V DC power input, and +18V tolerant circuitry. With ¼” connections for input and output, the pedal is ready for both stage and studio use making it the most versatile 250 to date.
