| New DOD 308 Design
Finalized
This is the YJM308 Overdrive pedal that
will be available from DOD in December 2001. Final internal modifications have
been made to more accurately duplicate Yngwie's favorite gray pedal; also, the
outer casing design reflects the vintage original. The Yngwie Malmsteen model
DOD308 goes into production next week.  |
