Description

Edit description

This one started out as a collaboration between Nick at Dunwich Amps and myself. We were aiming for a massive sounding Rat based pedal, with huge volume on tap and all the lows and highs you could want. I've since redesigned the circuit to have an extra volume boost on a second foot-switch for big riffs or solos. Further tweaks across the circuit have improved the overall quality of sound. This is the pedal for you if you're looking for early Conan or Melvins guitar tones or an even more chunky take on Song 2 by Blur.

Current active users include Daniel of Gilla Band, Paul of Primordial, Matt of Malthusian, Matt of Hands Up Who Wants to Die/Shifting/No Spill Blood, Mike of Bong/11 Paranoias/Melting Hand etc, Niallo of Wild Rocket, Shiran of Monarch!/Year of No Light/Gasmask Terror, Shaun of Unyielding Love, Steve of Destriers.

The pedal graphics are hand pulled screen prints on powder coated or hand sprayed cases. Colours can vary from run to run, feel free to get in touch for more info.

All pedals are true bypass as standard and powered by the industry standard (boss style) negative tip 9V DC power supply. For best results use a reputable regulated pedal power supply.
