Description
A tweaked version of the modern day classic “Klon Centaur” pedal. The Mjolnir tweaks the clipping so that the units stay consistent and offer a slight boost in clarity / improvement to the overdrive sound of the unit. Apart from the few changes the unit is a fantastic clean boost to overdrive unit that always accents your rig and never takes anything away. The bypass on this pedal is buffered like the original unit so your signal gets a boost in clarity when the unit is off, great for big pedal boards!
- Amazing amount of boost on tap
- Treble control to dial in the perfect amount of top-end
- Slight improvement to overdrive sound for smooth gain tones
- Amazing buffered bypass which brings your chain back to life
- Top quality jacks, switch, pots, and components throughout
- Quality through hole components
