NUX NOD-1-20TH Horseman Overdrive Pedal, 20th Anniversary

The Spirit of the Horse: A 20th Anniversary Tribute The NUX Horseman pays homage to the legendary mid-'90s Centaur overdrive pedal, packing iconic vintage tone into a compact, mini stompbox enclosure. Celebrating NUX's 20th anniversary and the Year of the Horse, this edition brings a bold, exclusive aesthetic while maintaining its internal 18V voltage converter circuit that delivers massive headroom, rich harmonics, and dynamic response. With two distinct modes—Gold and Silver—it offers everything from transparent clean boosts to high-gain overdrive and natural diode-clipped distortion. A New Icon for a Milestone Year. 2026 marks 20 years of NUX innovation and the auspicious Year of the Horse. To honor this double celebration, we’ve reimagined our iconic Horseman with a bold, exclusive aesthetic. Combining the legendary ‘Gold Centaur’ soul with a design that captures the power and grace of the horse, this 20th-anniversary edition is a must-have for collectors and tone-chasers alike. Features Two Overdrive Modes in One: Gold Mode: Mimics the classic, transparent Gold Centaur overdrive. Silver Mode: Delivers a powered-up tone with an extended gain range. Built-in 18V Voltage Converter: Internal OP-AMP voltage doubler boosts 9V power to 18V, generating higher-order harmonics and superior headroom. Dual-Ganged Gain Potentiometer: The Gain control simultaneously adjusts the gain drive alongside bass and middle frequencies for balanced tonal shaping. Clean Boost & Natural Distortion: Functions as a pristine clean boost when Gain is low and Output is high, or produces natural waveform clipping via specially selected Schottky diodes. Selectable True / Buffer Bypass: Easily toggle between True Bypass (Red LED) for an untouched signal and Buffer Bypass (Green LED) to prevent signal loss in longer pedal chains.
