The sound of the MXR M104 Distortion Plus Guitar Effects Pedal is instantly familiar to so many guitarists. Warm and thick crunch makes for a delicious rock recipe and the MXR has plenty of that. So much that it was a personal favourite of Randy Rhoads Slash and Jerry Garcia. This pedal was the sound of 80s distortion and itll bring that attitude to your tone. Its versatility allows it to go far beyond the 80s though and can be dialled from a warm saturated crunch to thick gritty full-blown distortion. One of the first distortion pedals to utilise op-amps the famous 741 chip can generate a massive 46.5dB to bring your playing to life and stand above the mix. When you need some music muscle this is the distortion pedal to turn to.

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.
