MHP 72° Distortion Pedal (Machine Head Pedals)

MHP 72°
Preserve your original guitar and amp tones while adding some heat and spunk rich with harmonics and nicely softened edges and progressive compression. It has been described by one guitarist as, "the pedal that non pedal users want." The MHP 72° was conceived to impact guitar tones in ways that only sound like they originate from your guitar or amp - a truly seamless transition. What was the inspiration behind this OD design? First is a love for old classic tube amp designs, with their minimal tone controls, single channels, and no master volume. Second is a love for the earliest distortion pedals like the D+ and Rat, with their bare bones circuits, even in comparison to a TS type pedal. We tried to fuse the soft clipping of a great old tube preamp gain stage with the proven simplicity of those great old dirt boxes, but without any obsolete or noisy components. Gold powdercoat finish.
