About this product

Product Information

For a big sound, consider the Paul Cochrane Timmy overdrive guitar effect pedal. This great piece of guitar gear gives musicians control over volume, audio effects, and more. With this pedal, customizing the tone and sound of guitars is simple. If you're searching for a pedal that will add flavor to your dry amplifier sound without overwhelming it, this overdrive may be the solution.The Timmy overdrive is famous for its impressive tonal clarity. It provides a clean boost, but it never infringes upon the sounds produced by the amp. This is largely due to its single-circuit overdrive design. Instead of offering one tone knob, this device features a variety of control dials. This gives guitarists greater flexibility to create their own unique musical color. This signal tailoring precision has made the Timmy an integral part of many pedalboards. When guitarists use the device at the lowest settings, it gives the amp a clean, clear boost. When the settings are turned up, however, musicians can use this device to create tones with more depth, ranging from smooth notes to reedy sounds.This pedal is notable for having many cut dials. There is the Bass knob, which helps guitarists dial pre-distortion sounds. The Treble knob, on the other hand, is useful for post distortion tunes. The Gain knob can be used to modulate the amount of clipping, and the Volume/Boost knob impacts the output gain. There is also a three-way clipping-switch. This gives musicians the ability to alternate between symmetrical and asymmetrical clipping. These cut controls simplify the tone dialing process and give guitarists a great deal of EQ control. Notably, this device lets guitarists cut out unwanted bass and treble from a signal.The Paul Cochrane Timmy pedals are also known for their impressive responsivity. This device can immediately respond to the gentle strum of fingers or the blunt attack of a guitar solo; it has a similarity to the responsiveness of a tube amplifier. This touch sensitivity makes it an ideal pedal for musicians looking for fast-reacting guitar gear. A 9-volt battery is required to operate the Timmy. It can also run on AC power. This gives guitarists the flexibility and portability needed for live performance settings. The pedal is also relatively small and compact. This streamlined overdrive pedal is more space efficient than the vintage Tim and takes up less room on the pedalboard. The Timmy is also good at integrating into an already existing board signal chain. When used in a chain, it noticeably enhances the fullness of the sounds while also providing a boost of EQ. Every single one of these guitar pedals is made by hand. Because of their limited-edition status, none of the Timmy pedals are the same. They are even made in a variety of colors. This has turned them into sought-after collector's items. Guitarists who enjoy the interplay between guitar and amp will find these pedals worth it. They are recommended for use with high-quality amplifiers that offer great natural character.

Great overdrive. Almost perfect.
I'm an old school guitarist. I've used tube screamers for years. I was looking for something that had the dynamics of my screamers but had a shade more bass content without turning to mush. I found a few that worked, but I wanted a leave on set it and forget it pedal that would work with all of my gear on the same settings. The Timmy does that... Sort of. It works with all my guitars with one of my amps but not with the other. It loves my big el34 amp, it just doesn't get along with my smaller el84 amp. I was planning on replacing my 30 watt amp with a second el34 50 watt amp so that's not a real problem for me but it is something to keep in mind. Paul C designed this pedal around a Marshall Plexi. With that type of amp, there's nothing better. The pedal is versatile enough to work with other amps, but you will have to adjust the settings. Just keep that in mind if you're considering the Timmy.Read full review

My favorite Overdrive in my collection
Seriously, I have the Tubescreamer TS-808, Boss OD-1, Guthrie Trap, The Animal and of course "Timmy" overdrive pedals. Each one has it's very own unique qualities that really create inspiring sounds, but what sets Timmy apart from the rest is the usable range of overdrive. The other overdrives I own are either very limited on just how much hair I can add to my signal or has a lot of range that just isn't usable. I love every setting on Timmy's gain setting. I do favor the middle positon on the three way switch for the brightness but I use every increment of the drive settings. It really is my favorite.

Perfect boost pedal
The Timmy has got to be the best boost for juicing up solos or adding some extra horsepower to a guitar with weaker pickups. The transperancy is what makes this pedal shine, you can dial it in for just a bit more of what you already have or add some "hair" for more sustain without affecting your existing tone. Paul Cochrane is a super cool guy and an awesome pedal builder..I use to own one of the early Tim pedals (Timmy's big brother) and sold it to a buddy and am still regretting it. You simply can't go wrong with this pedal!

Timmy is more transparent to the original guitar tone than a Zendrive
This is one of my favorite overdrives (I have a bunch). It has a very "transparent" sound that doesn't loose any of the guitar tone. I prefer this pedal to my Zendrive because of that "transparency" and openness. It goes from a clean boost all the way to a pretty gnarly level of overdrive. I tend to use it on the clean side, where it stil displays a lot of touch sensitivity. The only odd thing is that the tone knobs are ATTENUATION knobs, which means the more you turn then clockwise, the more you roll OFF the treble or bass. I play a Fender Strat and a Gibson ES-335 "Lucille" thru this into a Fender Blues Jr. amp, and it sounds great!

Very impressive overdrive
I'd never seen a Timmy in person before. I'd watched some demos online, but that was it. I was looking for a light distortion that didn't sound funny, and the Timmy is just it. Very natural, organic, easy on the ears overdrive. Something every guitar player should check out at some point. I'm extremely pleased with my purchase.
