Three evolving overdrive circuits
At the heart of the Badder Monkey are three distinct overdrive circuits: Behaved, Bad and Badder. Behaved offers smoother, more classic breakup, Bad is the exact circuit from the original Bad Monkey beloved by players worldwide, and Badder pushes into more aggressive and raw distortion. Whether you need a light push for rhythm parts or a saturated wall of overdrive, the SC1-style triple-circuit setup ensures a huge range of tones.
Patent-pending Barrel Control
The 360-degree Barrel Control is a standout feature, letting you blend any two of the three circuits at once. This creates hundreds of unique tone combinations, from subtle tonal shades to wide, harmonically rich textures. Detent stops at each circuit allow you to isolate one voice completely, giving you everything from single-circuit purity to blended chaos. It’s not a gain boost – it’s a blend control for sculpting truly unique drive sounds.
Phase-flip and Troop Mode
The three-way toggle expands the pedal even further: run the Bad circuit in-phase for traditional overdrive response, flip it out-of-phase for fuzzy, frequency-cancelled textures, or switch to Troop Mode to activate all three circuits equally, bypassing the Barrel Control entirely. Troop Mode is rich, harmonically dense and ideal for massive, stacked distortion tones that stay musical and expressive.
Stage-ready design with StagePlate
The reversible StagePlate is a new DOD innovation, featuring a skid pad side for stability on floors and stages, and a hook side for instant pedalboard mounting. A simple four-screw flip transforms its behaviour. Paired with true bypass, rugged aluminium construction and modern 9V DC compatibility, it’s built for real-world use. The Badder Monkey even ships with extras including stickers, a barrel of monkeys pick holder and a beer-label throwback to the original Bad Monkey legacy.
