The Iron Horse is our take on a classic distortion circuit that’s thick, punchy, riffy, and rowdy. With the help of the Si/LED knob and wide range of the distortion knob, this true bypass, high-gain behemoth can be finely tuned for clear overdriven sounds or let the reigns loose for a full-on distorted onslaught.  

Top mount jacks with soft switch bypassing and art by David Hüttner complete the package for a pedal board-ready distortion machine. 

The Iron Horse V3 updates are as follows:

• Top-mounted jacks

• Soft relay true bypass on/off

• Fixed volume drop-off when the distortion knob is at minimum

• Re-imagined the hard clipping toggle as a blend style potentiometer, that allows you to blend between symmetrical silicon and diode clipping for a new variety of tones.

Owners of the previous versions of the Iron Horse will be familiar with the three distortion modes operated by a toggle switch to change between different clipping modes. The switch has now been replaced with a blending knob opening up a wealth of ways to alter your tone.
