This is a brand new product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeveloped in close collaboration with \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeorge Lynch\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, the \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMr. Scary Mod\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e is a custom-voiced evolution of the original Hot Mod V2—designed to deliver significantly more gain without permanently modifying your amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you want to supercharge a classic Marshall (and many other valve amps) while keeping everything completely reversible, the Mr. Scary Mod is the answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeorge initially tried the standard Hot Mod V2 in his own Marshall and loved the concept, but wanted more control and a voicing tailored specifically to his playing style. The result is a unique version built just for him—and now available to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstead of the Hot Mod V2’s two-position gain switch, the Mr. Scary Mod features a fully variable \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGain control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, ranging from true unity gain all the way to blistering, saturated drive.

Engage it for added bass weight and fullness—perfect for thinner guitars—or switch it off for a tighter, more focused low end with enhanced clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mr. Scary Mod adds an adjustable, 100% pure tube gain stage on top of the cathode follower V2 position, increasing sustain and harmonic richness while preserving note definition and pick attack. It’s responsive, dynamic, and extremely musical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach unit is hand-built and wired in the USA, one at a time, using high-grade components and carefully tuned by ear.

It’s an old-school approach, but far more natural, expressive, and musically fulfilling.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you want authentic tube gain, maximum touch sensitivity, and zero permanent modification, welcome to the \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMr. Scary Mod\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease view the full list of compatibility so you know which version (standard or reverse-wired) to choose before placing your order.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eCertain amps will require socket extenders (e.g. Mesa Badlander, Marshall DSL, etc.) and we now include these with all orders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGet in touch if you're unsure whether this will work with your amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe typically ship to domestic locations with DPD but if you prefer to collect in person you’re welcome to visit our \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWest London showroom in Hayes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppointments available to test or collect.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Legendary Tones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53664679002448,"sku":"0397","price":299.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0919\/5856\/files\/38cddfeb-3019-453a-9ace-0e8cabcd2aa4.jpg?v=1789895426","url":"https:\/\/overdriveguitars.com\/products\/legendary-tones-mr-scary-mod-2026-standard-wired-rev-95010778","provider":"Overdrive Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
