MXR Jail Guitar Doors Overdrive Effects Pedal Black and White

1500000469871



Get ready to kick out the jams with the MXR Jail Guitar Doors Overdrive effects pedal—a limited-edition stompbox inspired by the uncompromising energy of Wayne Kramer and his trailblazing work with MC5. Co-designed with Daredevil Pedals’ Johnny Wator and featuring custom artwork by legendary street artist Shepard Fairey, this pedal is a powerful fusion of sound, style and social impact. Its dual cascading gain stages and single gain/volume control knob deliver Kramer’s signature explosive tone in a simple, stage-ready format built for pure rock ’n’ roll firepower. A majority of proceeds support Jail Guitar Doors USA, the nonprofit founded by Kramer to help incarcerated individuals heal through music. Limited to just 500 units, this collectible overdrive isn’t just built to rock—it’s built to make a difference.

Authentic MC5 Fire, Modern MXR Power

The Jail Guitar Doors Overdrive captures the raw, electrifying tone that defined Wayne Kramer’s revolutionary guitar sound. At its heart are two cascading gain stages—the Daredevil Drive-Bi Dual Gain Distortion and the MXR Micro Amp—working together to deliver the punch and sustain of two roaring 100W stacks. As you crank the single output knob, the signal from the first stage feeds into the second, producing a harmonically rich, dynamic overdrive that’s full of grit and attitude. It’s that unrestrained Detroit power, reborn for the modern stage and studio.

Custom Artwork by Shepard Fairey

Visually, this pedal is just as bold as the sound it delivers. Shepard Fairey—iconic artist, activist and founder of OBEY—crafted the Jail Guitar Doors Overdrive’s exclusive artwork to reflect its rebellious spirit and message of creative freedom. With stark geometric lines and Fairey’s unmistakable street-art aesthetic, the design channels the same attitude that fueled Wayne Kramer’s guitar work—powerful, unapologetic and crafted to make a statement. The graphic’s sharp contrasts and militant symmetry echo the pedal’s no-frills construction, perfectly marrying visual grit with road-ready durability. The result is a striking statement piece that blurs the line between stage gear and gallery art.

Music With a Mission: Supporting Jail Guitar Doors USA

Beyond the incendiary tone and bold artwork lies a powerful purpose. A majority of proceeds from this pedal benefit Jail Guitar Doors USA, the nonprofit co-founded by Wayne Kramer, his wife Margaret and folk-punk icon Billy Bragg. For over 15 years, the organization has brought music programs and instruments to correctional facilities nationwide, helping incarcerated individuals find expression, healing and hope through creativity. Your purchase supports that mission directly—turning every note you play into a contribution to positive change.
