Description

The Wizard is a new distortion pedal, inspired by Tony Iommi's guitar sound on the early Black Sabbath albums. It is well known that he used a modified Rangemaster to drive his amps, so the same principle was used for The Wizard. The first gain stage is essentially a Rangemaster, using a germanium transistor, but tweaked for a full range boost. That drives a distortion circuit which has been designed to give something of the tone and feel of a Laney Supergroup amp. Obviously, there is no substitute for a full stack at volume, but The Wizard has a similar distortion character and responds well to picking dynamics.

Features:

  • True Bypass
  • FR-4 glass-epoxy circuit board
  • 9V DC operation, battery or external power supply (2.1mm centre-negative, standard Boss-type supply is required)
  • Negative earth, no need for a dedicated power supply.

Price

The Wizard - £ 195.00 (£ 234.00 inc. VAT)
