Description

Crank up the nostalgia and unleash your inner rockstar with the 98 Audio Hair Metal overdrive pedal. A modern homage to the iconic sounds of the late '80s, this pedal resurrects the legendary tones of the era with a contemporary twist. Designed for both die-hard metal fans and sonic explorers, the Hair Metal pedal promises to deliver everything from subtle overdrive to face-melting distortion, making it the perfect companion for your next gig or jam session.

At its core, the Hair Metal features a dual op amp setup, deviating from the traditional RAT-style single op amp to provide a smoother, more versatile overdrive experience. This unique configuration allows you to experiment with different op amps, tailoring your sound to perfection. The pedal's tone control is ingeniously wired to send higher frequencies to ground, offering a refined tonal palette that captures the essence of the era's most infamous sounds.

Built with precision and quality in mind, the Hair Metal pedal boasts high-quality Wima film and Nichicon Fine Gold electro caps, ensuring a pristine signal path. The heavy-duty stomp switch with true bypass guarantees reliability, while the glow-in-the-dark knobs add a rockstar flair to your pedalboard. Whether you're powering up with a 9V battery or a standard DC wall wart, this pedal is ready to bring your wildest hair metal dreams to life.

Key Features:

  • Custom dual op amp design for smooth overdrive
  • Tone control wired to emulate classic guitar setup
  • High-quality Wima film and Nichicon Gold caps
  • True bypass with heavy-duty stomp switch
  • Glow-in-the-dark knobs
