Product Description
T-Rex Mudhoney II, Dual Distortion / Fuzz Pedal for Electric Guitar
- T-Rex tinkers great pedals; Having become legendary (among bluesmen)
- the Alberta is a modern Tubescreamer with a great sound. Those for whom the Alberta was too tame would find the Mudhoney to be just right. The Mudhoney's core sound is somewhat harder
- but above all more flexible than the Alberta
- being able to create countless sounds
- from a soft jazz (rock) sound set to fuzzy brutal distortion. Aside from the usual controls of Gain
- Level and Tone
- the Boost switch ensures endless gain and sustain.
- Now there is the Mudhoney II and it is a double source of joy: Everything that was good in the first model has now been doubled: Two identical channels that allow
- for example
- you to set a crunch and a Lead channel. Along with the pure Amp sound then you have a three-channel system - which is completely sufficient for most guitar players. Only the name is still not always right - It would not be right to call it Muddy
- since it allows even chords to be clearly defined with hearty distortion.
