Evil Eye FX Paladin Drive Pedal

The Paladin is a unique overdrive/distortion pedal based on a hidden gem of the 1980s - the Yamaha OD-10MII - with a few more tricks up its sleeve.

Thanks to the clipping selector switch, which toggles between the “stock” silicon diode clipping and germanium clipping, the Paladin is a great medium gain drive/low gain distortion pedal with plenty of headroom and gain on tap for running through clean or dirty amps. Unlike other 1980s Japanese overdrive circuits - *cough* *cough* Tube Screamer - the Paladin’s EQ is relatively flat (transparent if you will).

Features

TWO DISTINCT CLIPPING FLAVORS

• Si: Symmetrical silicon clipping - smoother and less compressed
• Ge: Asymmetrical germanium clipping - more compressed and natural sounding

TRANSPARENT EQ

Thanks to a modified Big Muff-style active tone control, the Paladin offers a flatter more natural EQ than something like a Tube Screamer or Klon, resulting in a tone that is much closer to the natural sound of your guitar and amp.
