Overview

FIREMAN is based on the legendary amplifier builder’s famous distortion pedal. It’s a very amp-like distortion pedal with Modern Brown Sound. We designed it with 2 independent VOLUME, GAIN control knobs to fit rhythm and solo applications. FIREMAN offers a True-bypass / Buffer-bypass toggle switch, and a 9V / 18V toggle switch. The 18V position doubles the working voltage inside to give you wider dynamic range.

Features

  • Modern Brown Sound in a box.
  • True-bypass / Buffer-bypass toggle switch.
  • 18V / 9V toggle switch to get different dynamic range.
  • 2 independent GAIN, VOLUME knobs for rhythm / solo application.
