Technical Details
The pedal operates on a standard 9V DC power supply or a 9V battery. The internal circuitry is designed to provide high headroom and low noise, maintaining the clarity of your guitar's natural tone even at high depth settings. The rugged metal housing and high-quality switches ensure it can withstand consistent professional use.
This pedal is an essential tool for guitarists looking to add vintage psychedelic textures or organic, moving modulation to their sound. It excels at adding depth to clean passages and providing a "liquid" feel to overdriven lead lines.
