PRELOVED BOGNER Uberschall Pedal
Preloved condition.
The Bogner Uberschall pedal was designed to bring the aggressive high-gain character of Bogner’s legendary Uberschall amplifier into a compact stompbox. It can cover lower and medium gain sounds, but its real strength is the huge, tight, saturated distortion it delivers when pushed hard.
This is a fully analog design built around discrete Class A gain stages rather than op-amp clipping, giving it the feel and response of an amp-inspired distortion rather than a generic high-gain pedal.
Uberschall-Inspired High Gain
The pedal is voiced after Bogner’s Uberschall amplifier, with a strong low end, cutting attack and thick saturation. It works especially well for heavy rock and metal players who want big gain without losing note definition.
Full Three-Band EQ
Unlike many compact distortion pedals, the Uberschall gives you dedicated Treble, Middle and Bass controls alongside Gain and Volume. That makes it much easier to tailor the pedal to different guitars, amps and tunings.
Footswitchable Boost
A dedicated Boost section gives you a second gain stage with its own level control. You can pre-arm the Boost so it is already active when the main effect is switched on, making it useful for lead tones or stepping between rhythm and solo gain levels.
Remote Switching
The rear-panel Remote jack allows external control of the pedal’s on/off and Boost functions, which is handy in rack systems or larger pedalboards with switchers.
Premium Analog Construction
Bogner used high-quality components throughout, including gold-plated circuit boards and relays, German WIMA capacitors and Japanese Nichicon capacitors. The signal path is 100% analog, with true bypass switching.

Our Take
The Bogner Uberschall pedal has a reputation for a reason. It is big, aggressive and very amp-like in the way it handles gain, but the full EQ and Boost section also make it far more flexible than a one-trick metal distortion box.
