Plustortion
This little yellow box has produced lots of great
soundings in countless classic studio albums. Yeah,
we’re talking the legendary MXR® M104 Distortion +*,
and this M104-based Plustortion. The Plustortion
recreated the Germanium-powered soft clipping
distortion, like what Randy Rhoads and other hard
rockers do!

Smooth Dist
Based on the famous late-70’s distortion pedal that is a

produces a distortion sound ranging from screaming
loud to whisper soft. Of course, it faithfully reproduces
the dynamics of your playing style.

Here is another dirt pedal that changed the rules.

underground rock scene. Sweet overdrives, grinding
rhythms, roaring solos – Black Tail cashes in with
authority and power.
Same as the original, Black Tail features the legendary

turn it counterclockwise to allow the natural brightness
of your instrument through.
