Darkglass Microtubes B1K is a phenomenal tribute to one of our most legendary distortion circuits in a compact and intuitive format. We are proud to introduce our Microtubes B1K distortion pedal, the first of its kind from an all-new lineup.

The pedal has 4 knobs and a couple of dip switches, level and drive are on the front and the rest is on the back. Level sets the volume of the overdriven signal and Drive sets the amount of saturation in the overdriven signal.

The Blend knob mixes the clean input signal with the overdriven signal. The clean signal remains at unity gain while the volume of the overdriven signal is set by the Level knob, allowing for fine control of the blend ratio. The Tone knob controls the high frequency content of the sound. A variable low pass filter from 3kHz (ccw) to 8kHz (cw).

The grunt switch is still present, as you would expect. The addition comes in the form of a mid boost, giving you a subtle 6dB boost from 300 Hz to 1 kHz to help you cut through a bit more.

The pedal is powered by a standard 9 volts power supply (sold separately).
