Akai Shred-O-Matic D1 Tube-Driven Overdrive / Distortion Effect Pedal with Box

The Akai Shred-O-Matic stands out for its exceptional versatility, seamlessly combining the richness of creamy 12AX7A tube distortion with the boldness of edgy solid-state distortion, all within a single, convenient unit.

The Shred-O-Matic's unique MIX function, available in both TUBE and DIODE modes, empowers you to shape the distortion dynamically based on your playing technique. Play softly, and the signal flows solely through the tube section, delivering a gentle, low-level distortion. Increase your intensity, and the warm tube output blends with the fierce diode section for a dynamic, powerful result.

Enhancing flexibility, two user-selectable modes, SMOOTH and PASSION, offer gradual or abrupt transitions between tube and diode distortion, catering to diverse sonic preferences.

Equipped with user-friendly controls, including an output level control and LED indicator for distortion mode, the Shred-O-Matic ensures ease of operation. The foot switch toggles the effects on and off, and in the off state, the 'true bypass' function maintains a pristine signal without altering its natural tone.

The Shred-O-Matic provides multiple distortion modes:

• TUBE: Delivers the warm, fat sound of tube distortion
• DIODE: Produces the harder, edgier sound of diode distortion
• MIX: Dynamically controlled by player dynamics

The foot pedal serves a dual purpose, allowing intuitive adjustment of the drive level or functioning as a swell pedal for distinctive 'violin' effects.

In addition to its remarkable sonic capabilities, the Shred-O-Matic is a previously used item that exhibits signs of cosmetic wear. However, it is fully operational and functions as intended, having been well cared for. It comes complete with the original box, manuals, and power supply.

Discover the immense flexibility of the Shred-O-Matic, possibly the most versatile distortion pedal available, offering both valve and solid-state distortion, along with real-time pedal performance control.
