Digitech Analog Bad Monkey Tube Overdrive
 This product is no longer available.
The Bad Monkey Tube Overdrive gives your amp a boost just when you need it. It has been compared to the TS-808 but with having the unique ability to smooth out the distortion by use of the low and high EQ controls. Most overdrive pedals give you one tone control knob thus limiting your tonal options. You asked for a pedal that will maintain your guitar's distinct tone and DigiTech delivered! With its rugged design, separate mixer and amp outputs, and amazing tonal options, this pedal truly is a Bad Monkey. From Blues to Rock to everything in between, it will give you that amazing overdriven tube amp sound that will keep begging you to crank it up!

Love my Bad Monkey. Very versatile drive and the direct to PA output option is a bonus too.

I bought this pedal to replace my amp . Yes ..to replace my amp . I use it on the " mixer out" quarter inch output and run straight to my board . And its been amazing . It helos me to mix my guitar to the BG tracks and vocals , thickens the sound ( tube emulation ) has on board treble bass , volume and gain and its dirt cheap . It is my go-to guitar pedal no matter what . BTW on the occasional gig where ZI DO use it with my amp , the overdrive KILLS . Smooth , fat and responds to smallest nuances in picking dynamics. Can't say enough about my Monkey .

I use this to give my DSL 100's clean channel a Big Kick in the Ass. Pushes the amp into a smooth compression that is controllable with your volume knob, leaving the red channel for face melting. I definitely wouldn't leave home without it.

I got mine a year ago and love it. It works great driving a clean channel, or adding to a drive channel. It's got a wide array of tonal possibilities with the 3 band eq and the gain knob. It does all of this for an incredible value.

I really love this pedal and recommend it to anyone looking for a solid TS style boost with extra EQ options. Very smooth and with the midrange bump it really helps you cut through without sounding thin. I use it with a Traynor YGL2 , 1976 YBA 2b and Mesa Lonestar Special 4x10 and it pushes these amps into dirty breakup with ease

If you're almost there, this little baby will give you a nice nudge up. If you just can't get those squeaks and squawks, this will get you there. It works for my VOX AC15, but try it with your amp first before you buy it. It doesn't help with all amps. It's a great value and I'm glad I bought it.

Having had one a few years ago, and mistakenly gotten rid of it. I have been happy to say I found another. They are basic with just your Level/Low/High/Gain and sound great! I play the blues, so hearing them just open the amp up when you can't quite push to that lush tube overdrive, it gets you just over the brink. Phenomenal pedal, would recommend it to anyone, best bang for the buck too.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
