de Lisle Notch Box Varitone Style Notch Filter With Built-In Boost

Designed with feedback from Justin Adams, guitarist for Robert Plant, the de Lisle Notch Box is based on the Gibson ® Varitone circuit found in guitars like the ES-355, Lucille and Blueshawk. Our pedal version offers 6 preset notch filters for various tones along with a potentiometer to control the notch depth. There is a voicing switch that allows you to toggle between the original '59 circuit and the redesigned Varitone introduced in the Blueshawk - that's 12 linearly variable filters in all!

The original Varitone was a simple passive device, so there was a fair amount of signal loss at higher settings. To counteract this, the Notch Box includes an adjustable MOSFET boost. Set it to unity gain so your the effected and dry signals are at the same level.

The Notch Box was designed with other pedals in mind, so it has a high impedance input and a low impedance output. It will fit nicely at any position on your board.

The de Lisle Notch Box is hand-wired in the USA with silver plated 20AWG wire and no PCB mounted jacks, switches or plugs. This pedal is built to last and comes housed in a powder coated aluminum enclosure. As always with every piece of de Lisle gear, it's back by a lifetime warranty for your peace of mind.
