Description
- New for 2020 - we've updated the clipping footswitch to a relay based soft-touch to completely eliminate mechanical switches and improve the lifetime of the pedal. *
Normal pedal is translucent slime green and a lucky 12 people will get a Sparkly Hot Pink enclosure w/ yellow flame art. If you want the normal green version please make a note in your order. Chases are randomly chosen.
HM2 but better. Now with a clean blend & Clickless bypass switch + top mounted jacks.
Controls include: Clean Blend, Low, Mid, High, Volume, & Distortion. 2nd footswitch engages diode clipping which adds not only a volume boost but also thickens up that normally thin chainsaw tone, this is great for leads & heavier parts in songs.
All sales final, once an order is placed you cannot cancel. Please refer to our FAQ page for more details before placing an order.
