Maximum tone for the minimalist. Few things are as pivotal in a player's life than learning about the world of distortion pedals, and it's gotten to the point where the term itself is almost a pejorative. We invite you to the world of the Catalinbread CB Distortion, a dirt box that so..

Maximum tone for the minimalist. A powerful introduction into the world of fuzz, the CB Fuzz puts nothing between you and rock's most beloved effect of all time. From its humble beginnings as defective console tubes and punctured speaker cones, the CB Fuzz distills 60 years ..

Maximum tone for the minimalist. Since rock music began, people have been cranking the volume controls on their amps in order to push them into distortion, an effect now known as "overdrive." The CB Overdrive gives you some refined yet gritty cranked-amp tones without the hearing loss.All the w..

Captures the regal and soaring tones of a Rangemaster Treble-Booster into a cranked up Vox AC30"Queen in a box" Brian May’s sonic signature not only comes from his home built “Red Special” guitar, but also from a treble-booster pummeling banks of AC30s. He never turns the treble booster off, ac..

The Cloak began after unearthing some ancient texts containing some forbidden incantations on how to introduce spectral elements within a decaying echo. Ok, we’re embellishing a bit; but the inspiration came from the land of academia and the acoustics department at Stanford, where a treati..

After having acquired more flangers than should be allowed by law, we sealed ourselves away in the laboratory to study the nuts and bolts of the effect. What emerged was the STS-88, a love letter to the flanger. Our development sector contains units of all types, from the ubiquitous Boss HF-2 and EH..

"Tremolo" is only scratching the surface. With 8 unique programs, the Tremolo8 shows you what volume modulation is truly capable of.In a past life, this project started as a pedal for our personal enjoyment; a digitized model of the Fender Showman’s "harmonic vibrato". The experiment was a resoundin..

In the beginning of studio tricks, many recording engineers had to invent their own effects. Double tracking and flanging started as manual manipulations of magnetic tape and the machinery used to process it.One such effect is gated reverb, the combination of digital reverb and noise gate, "invented..

The Sinkhole is perhaps our most ethereal reverb unit to date. We’ve combined a harmonically-rich “hole” reverb with an impossibly deep four-voice chorus that’s been outfitted with a feedback control and a gentle high-cut filter. Within this arrangement, the feedback control allows the Sinkhole to r..
