Selling a Walrus Audio Eras Five-State Distortion, a USA-made distortion pedal in a rare special edition.

Extremely versatile thanks to its 5-position clipping mode selector, which makes it easy to move from a pushed, dynamic overdrive-style sound to more compressed and aggressive distortion tones. It can cover distortion sounds across many genres; personally, I think it excels with drop-tuned guitars.

The Blend control is especially useful and quite uncommon on distortion pedals of this type. It allows you to refine the tone by mixing in the cleaner/overdriven signal, and is essential if used on bass.

Excellent condition, used only at home. Fully functional. No original box included.

Hand delivery available in Modena. With some patience, I also pass through Rimini and Milan approximately once a month.
