Inspired by one of, if not the most revered guitar pedal of all time, Behringer’s Zentara is a transparent boost meets overdrive, loaded with soft-clipping Germanium diodes for massive dynamic range and glorious golden gain on tap. Ideal for everything from center-stage blues solos to rock riffs that ooze organic sustain.

Key Features

  • Legendary overdrive with transparent “amp-like” tone, touch and feel
  • Dual concentric gain knob with wide range for boost, overdrive and distortion
  • All analogue circuitry with Germanium diodes for soft transitional clipping
  • Stepped-up internal voltage provides huge dynamic range
  • Treble control for custom-tailoring high frequencies
  • Discrete buffered true bypass avoids high-frequency loss from long cable runs
  • Robust housing with authentic vintage styling
  • Runs on 9 V battery or Behringer PSU-SB DC power supply (not included)

Authentic circuitry

The Zentara’s Germanium diodes provide ‘soft clipping’, which helps preserve that natural amp-like response, while stepped-up internal voltage ensures a wide dynamic range, bringing depth and precision to every note.

At the heart of the Zentara’s transparent circuit is a dual potentiometer gain control, a tweak to the original design. The idea is to make it more reliable, precise, and gradual when cranked from clean to driven. 

Clean boost to crunch – A truly versatile overdrive

The Zentara is versatile enough to use as a clean boost, full-tilt driven saturation, or a front-of-amp pusher for that sought-after organic breakup.

Just like its spiritual predecessor, this golden stompbox responds to your picking dynamics thanks to its high headroom and specially-selected diodes. Soften your attack for a clean-yet-confident response, or dig in to make your amp sing!

Distortion

Distortion pedals take your clean guitar signal and transform it into something bigger, bolder, and full of attitude. By clipping the waveform, they add sustain, bite, and aggression, creating that thick, compressed tone that’s powered rock music for decades. From the growling crunch of classic hard rock to the tight, saturated roar of modern metal, distortion is all about energy and presence. It gives every note weight and authority, pushing your amp to its limits and beyond.

There are countless flavours of distortion, each with its own texture and edge. Some sound smooth and creamy, others raw and gnarly like tearing fabric. It’s the sonic equivalent of turning up the heat until the sound cooks — rich, sizzling, and perfectly seasoned to taste. Whether used for rhythm muscle or soaring leads, a good distortion pedal doesn’t just add volume; it adds personality, grit, and that unmistakable sense of power under your fingers.

Overdrive

Like a golden layer of melted cheese — warm, gooey, and just put it all over. It adds just the right amount of richness and grit, turning a clean signal into something smooth and savoury. Designed to mimic the natural breakup of a tube amp pushed to its sweet spot, overdrive delivers the flavour of classic rock and blues in every bite. From creamy mid-gain warmth to crisp edge-of-breakup sparkle, it’s the comfort food of guitar tone — simple, satisfying, and endlessly versatile. Whether it’s a mild crunch or a full-bodied roar, overdrive is where good taste begins.
