It's a '56, so it's a little old to have a real overdrive. The sound is generally clean, but if it's turned up past 7-8 (it goes to 12), and you're playing fast, it starts to do it's thing. The "Presence" knob is the main control for effects, and playing with it can get various amounts distortion at high levels.

But you can't really compare it to a Marhsall from the 60's, etc.
