Item #14268

The first in line from the MXR Custom Badass design team, the MXR Custom Badass ’78 Distortion is a factory-modded pedal that roars with huge amp stack tones and old school tube amp-like distortion.

MXR took a classic distortion circuit and hot-rodded it to the next level for over-the-top soaring leads and rich, saturated rhythms. With only three knobs, dialing in Badass tone is a cinch. The Crunch button allows you to choose between two different modes of diode and LED clipping, boosting the harmonic content of the distortion.

The '78 Distortion's wide open amp-like sound sounds great whether it's in front of a clean amp, a slightly dirty amp, or a full on overdriven amp. Under the hood, this pedal features top notch circuitry and hardware meant for a lifetime of use. Powered by a standard 9 volt power supply, or a 9 volt battery. 

This '78 Distortion is in fairly good cosmetic condition, with some of the 'MXR' logo on the front coming worn off, and there is velcro on the back of the pedal for attaching to pedalboards.
