One Control / Baby Blue OD Limited BJFE Style

The Baby Blue OD, an overdrive that produces the original circuitry and sound that started BJFE's effects pedals, is a limited edition model decorated in the design style of BJFE, the legendary effects pedal brand led by its developer BJF, or Bjorn Juhl.

Baby Blue OD
The One Control BJFe Series Baby Blue OD, released on December 16, 2000, is a new version of BJF's signature overdrive pedal, designed by BJF himself.

Originally given the model name “Fuzz1,” this pedal was created with a discrete circuit that combines dynamic overdrive and fuzz.

This pedal can be used with high output amps as well as low output amps to create the best sound at a “slightly lower” volume to balance the band's ensemble. An effects pedal that could control everything from clean to drive. At the time, the “FUZZ1” was the only such pedal that existed anywhere in the world.

After its introduction as the Baby Blue OD, this pedal was embroiled in a controversy. The “D” is a top-of-the-line guitar amp that is custom built for top guitarists. There was much discussion on forums about its similarity to the tone of the “D” amps.

BJF did not intend for this to happen. When I first saw a traditional American combo amp, I imagined what it would sound like. The Baby Blue OD was the embodiment of that imaginary sound.
Whether it was coincidence or inevitability that the sound resembled the tone of a top-of-the-line amp modified from an American amp, no one knows.

The original Baby Blue ODs produced by BJF are handcrafted using NOS parts and other components.
The One Control Baby Blue OD is not made with NOS parts so that more players can get the sound that BJF himself chose, and after much testing and listening, the One Control Baby Blue OD was completed until it sounded and felt completely Baby Blue OD. One Control Baby Blue OD was completed.

The One Control Baby Blue OD has a response and dynamics that can be controlled entirely at hand, yet is easy to play without making the player feel intimidated.
The overtone component of the tone has an edge, yet each note is clearly articulated, even in harmony. The speed and unique warmth of the sound are all exquisitely adjusted to create a truly comfortable sound for guitarists.

■Controls
VOLUME: Adjusts the overall volume.
DRIVE: This control allows you to set various types of distortion, a wide range of gain and sustain. A lower setting produces a more sensitive distortion pattern, while a higher setting produces a more compressed and stable tone.
TREBLE: Adjusts the high-frequency component of the output signal. The treble response is high, and depending on the equipment, the balance may be best at the lowest setting.
