Be the master of your sound with the Special Cranker Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal, a reliable and innovative addition to your musical arsenal. This high-quality, all-discrete analog distortion enhancement device is designed to add a touch of grit and boost to your signal without compromising your unique tone. It's like adding an extra preamp tube to your amplifier for an increased saturation, allowing your single notes to flourish with rich harmonics and a singing sustain.
This versatile pedal enhances your power chords, making them sound thicker and crunchier, while preserving the distinct and complex nature of your complex chords. The Special Cranker Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal is designed to maintain the integrity of your tone, preventing muddying of the low-end or smearing of the midrange.
The Level control allows you to adjust the output volume, with unity gain found between 10-12 o'clock depending on the selected diodes. The Diode Selector offers a choice between Germanium for a softer, more transparent tone, and Silicon for a brighter, modern edge. The More control adjusts the gain, changing the bias of the transistor for a range of tones, from nearly clean to a medium gain overdrive at maximum.
The Tone control lets you shape your signal, rolling off highs counterclockwise and boosting highs clockwise, with a flat response found around 3 o'clock. The Special Cranker Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal is a refined version of the beloved Speaker Cranker, offering more gain, double the output volume, an added Tone control, and a diode selector switch.
The pedal features Flexi-Switch Technology for both momentary and latching style switching, offering you complete control over your sound. For optimal performance, power this device with a standard 9-volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel.
Experience the durability and versatility of the Special Cranker Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal, a trusted product from Earthquaker Devices, and elevate your music to new heights.
