Colortone Parasite is a JFET based Overdrive guitar pedal with active tone controls.

At a mild drive setting the PARASITE can act as an ‘always on’ pre-amp style device adding a light organic textural sparkle to your clean sound.

With larger amounts of drive you’ll start feeling the creamy tubelike compression, tonal breakup and harmonic complexity of a driven tube amp.

At its most extreme the PARASITE holds no shame in getting dirty and noisy.
