Bad Cat

Bad Cat are best known for hand-built tube amps with huge feel and harmonic richness. That same character is now available on your pedalboard. Their Double Drive pedal captures boutique overdrive tones with the touch sensitivity players love from Bad Cat amps.

At Guitar FX Direct we carry the Bad Cat Double Drive  . It’s a stackable dual-channel overdrive that covers clean boost through to full-on lead gain. You can use either side on its own or use them together for rich, harmonically complex tones.

Why we like Bad Cat

Bad Cat built their reputation on boutique amps that feel incredibly alive under the fingers – dynamic, responsive and full of harmonic content. The Double Drive takes that same approach and puts it into a compact, dual-channel overdrive pedal that works with almost any amp.

Bad Cat Double Drive – Stackable Dual Overdrive

Bad Cat Double Drive gives you two independent overdrive circuits in one enclosure. Each side can run as a clean boost or as an overdrive, so you can set one for edge-of-breakup crunch and the other for thicker lead tones, then stack them for saturated, sustaining drive.

The voices are transparent and amp-like, with “K-style” clarity that keeps your guitar’s character intact rather than smothering it in fuzz. Run it into a clean amp and you effectively have a three-channel rig under your feet – clean, low gain and high gain – all without touching your amp’s controls.

Perfect for Klon-style tones

If you’re hunting for a Klon-inspired drive that can still do its own thing, the Double Drive sits comfortably alongside other favourites in our Klon clones and alternatives guide. It can handle subtle always-on tone shaping, mid-pushed lead sounds and stacked gain textures without getting muddy.

Whether you’re running a small combo or a big clean pedal platform, Bad Cat Double Drive is a flexible way to add boutique overdrive to your setup. If you’re unsure how it would fit your board or existing drives, drop us a line and we’ll happily talk you through options.
