The Grand Magus offers tube-like distortion and overdrive tones and will give rock n’ roll in a box. More than mild overdrive but not quite as will as wild as a metal pedal, this is the perfect middle ground for rockers. Overflowing with organic amp-like distortion tones, natural tube compression and a tight but rich tonal character, Grand Magus Distortion IS the sound of Rock N Roll.  Now put all of that in a compact metal enclosure with true bypass, and served to you at a price that’ll make your endorphin-levels shoot through the roof, and you got a shiny one-way ticket to rock heaven!

  • Versatile – Super-wide gain range
  • Pedalboard Friendly – True Bypass with a top-mounted I/O
  • Rugged Chassis – Compact and roadworthy enclosure

Raw Rock Power

Nothing has shaped the musical landscape more than a roaring tube guitar amp set to 11 – that incredible sound remains the heart and soul of rock. GRAND MAGUS DISTORTION distills the heavenly, rich harmonic content and power supply sag that made those early tube amps the “Holy Grail” for scores of guitar-wielding legends. So if your riffs call for tight bottom-end, rich mids and creamy highs, GRAND MAGUS DISTORTION stands ready to deliver.

50 Shades of Gain

GRAND MAGUS DISTORTION isn’t just a one-trick tone pony; its ultra-wide gain range and smooth tonal character, mixed with super-tight low-end response, lets you go from a Hendrix-style crunch to beefy Blackmore distortion – and all the way to super-saturated solo tones in a flash. Whether your gig calls for dark vintage distortion, or an extra-crispy modern high-gain tone, you’ll find it here in the super-versatile GRAND MAGUS DISTORTION.

Distortion Pedals

Distortion clips the waveform more firmly than overdrive, generating dense upper harmonics, longer sustain and a more compressed response. Circuit topology and filtering decide whether the sound is tight and focused, broad and aggressive, smooth or deliberately abrasive. Gain sets the amount of clipping, while pre- and post-distortion tone controls strongly influence low-end definition, midrange presence and high-frequency texture.

True Bypass

Connects input directly to output through mechanical or relay switching when the effect is off, removing the active circuit from the audio path. It avoids buffer colour but leaves cable capacitance and switching design to influence high-frequency loss and possible switching noise.
