The "So Many Knobs!" Distortion is our take on two of the best Friedman pedals, the BE-OD and also the Dirty Shirley.

It's a common mod to work out around those two classic circuits in the same enclosure and it turns the SMK into a "All great Marshall amp in a box" pedal.

Full control of your tone with Volume, Presence, Gain, full EQ and Tight knob. 

This is half the circuit of the GUP Tech DCD.

Power consumption : 18mA

Voltage : 9-18Vdc Center negative

Versatile distortion pedal praised for exceptional tone control and amp-like quality. Customers said it "cuts like a hot knife through butter" and delivers "thick but under control tone." Features 3-band EQ, presence, and tight knobs for precise sound shaping. Works well for gain staging from smooth overdrive to metal.

Faithful BE-OD tribute but with that extra mid knob! Cuts like a hot knife through butter!

Needed something to roughen up the tone of a very clean YGL-3. This fit the bill with a surprisingly thick but under control tone.

Love the TMK

This pedal is perfect for any gain staging. Running it with an eq pedal can take you from soft smooth overdrive to metal. Replaced all my other distortion and overdrive pedals with just this one

I have owned many distortion pedals and tube amps over my 35 years of playing. I plugged this SMK in, and was expecting a "pedal" sound. I currently run a Rocker Terror into a 212. Tight knob turned down,this pedal nails the Rocker Terror sound perfectly. Tight knob turned to 3 o'clock and it hits gorgeous JCM 800 tones. The best sound out of any pedal that I have tried. Very glad that I found out about these guys!

A great distortion pedal for genres that aren't full on high gain. I love that it gets almost fuzzy sounding but then you have a 3 band eq, presence knob and a tight knob (why isn't this a standard on all pedals?) to sculpt the sound however you want. It almost reminds me of a modern DS-1 with all the knobs you could ever need.
