JOYO 6-Mode Overdrive Guitar Pedal, ATTACK with Built-in Adjustable Noise Gate & LEVEL /GAIN /TONE Control, True Bypass (ARGOS OVERDRIVE JF-23)

Features

• 6-MODE ATTACK SELECTOR FROM CLASSIC TO MODERN METAL: The ARGOS OVERDRIVE delivers six distinct overdrive voicings through the ATTACK control knob, covering the full spectrum from smooth, mid-focused classic crunch to ultra-tight, aggressive modern metal tones. Players describe the tonal range as going from "tube screamer to super tight prog style." Whether chasing classic rock warmth or modern metal precision, the ATTACK selector provides a voice for every playing style.
• BUILT-IN ADJUSTABLE NOISE GATE SILENCE BETWEEN THE RIFFS: Unlike standard overdrive pedals that require a separate noise gate, the ARGOS features a dedicated GATE control knob for built-in noise suppression. At lower settings, it gently cleans up background hum and hiss. At higher settings, it clamps down for tight, percussive stops between heavy palm-muted riffs. Players describe the gate as allowing "notes to ring forever while still clamping down." For best results with active pickups, start with the GATE knob at a lower setting and increase gradually, as active pickups have a higher output that requires careful threshold adjustment.
• KNOB CONTROL LEVEL, GATE, TONE & GAIN: Sculpt your signature overdrive tone with four intuitive controls. LEVEL adjusts overall output volumefrom unity gain to a boost that can push your amp into natural overdrive. GATE controls the built-in noise gate thresholdfrom subtle noise reduction to aggressive silence. The TONE knob is an active EQ control that shapes brightness while adding gain and presence at higher settings. GAIN sweeps from a transparent clean boost at lower settings to thick, saturated overdrive with sustain for days. Players describe the pedal as delivering "more gain than an overdrive, not quite a distortion pedal."
• TRUE BYPASS & ROAD-READY JF SERIES DESIGN: True bypass switching preserves your guitar's natural tone when the pedal is disengaged, effectively reducing tone coloration and signal degradation. Encased in a rugged aluminum alloy chassis with a distinctive cobalt blue finish, the ARGOS features a compact footprint that saves precious pedalboard space. Dual power options: use a standard 9V 6F22 battery (not included) for portability, or a 9V DC adapter (center negative, not included) for consistent power. Rated current: 18mAexceptionally power-efficient for extended battery life.
• JOYO QUALITY & AFTER-SALES CONFIDENCE: Backed by JOYO's decade-plus reputation for crafting innovative, budget-friendly gear. Important: 9V battery and DC adapter are NOT included. For the quietest performanceespecially with high-gain overdrive circuitsuse a regulated, isolated 9V power supply and avoid daisy-chaining with other pedals. Players confirm the ARGOS pairs well with the JOYO Dark Flame for a complete metal rig.
