General

Guitarists are always looking to reinvent their tone, so after a painstaking search for the perfect guitar-and-amplifier-combination you don't want your effects pedals to affect the sound you spent months looking to find. With the WHE205 Saucy Box, Way Huge serve up a solution in the form of an overdrive pedal that knows how to retain every last bit of the original sound. Just like favourite piccalilli sauce can elevate a dish, the Way Huge Saucy Box adds the perfect touch of natural transparency to your tone.

The Way Huge WHE205 Saucy Box: Double Signal Paths

It's not just the popular Pork Loin Overdrive from Way Huge that boasts unrivalled versatility thanks to discrete signal paths for clean and overdrive, the Saucy Box here is no different. Combining both in a unique way, this overdrive pedal is undeniably one of the most organic, amp-like models on the market and, on top of that, is super easy to use. As a matter of fact, only three controls are needed to stir up a collection of clean or overdriven sounds fit to be fused with the sound of any guitar.

Intuitive Use

The volume control of the Saucy Box is backed by enough power to get the input of any tube amp up to pre-amp levels of distortion. With the Drive control turned all the way to the left, you start out with a crystal-clear clean boost that, as you turn the knob to the right, gradually transforms in a creamy yet transparent overdrive. Meanwhile, the passive single-pot tone control makes sure the Way Huge WH205 Saucy Box is compatible with both single-coil and humbucker-equipped guitars.
