Product Details
________________________________
This is a Distortion Plus manufactured around 1980!
At the time, it was considered revolutionary, featuring an unprecedentedly compact yet sturdy die-cast case and dramatically extended battery life, making it a truly outstanding product, typical of MXR. Simple controls—only drive and level—worked with any amp or guitar, and its sound, which easily captured picking nuances, was initially welcomed by fusion musicians rather than rock musicians. Turning down the guitar's volume produces a warm, edgy distortion. The slightly fuzzy, rough, and dry distortion, characteristic of the 1970s hard rock sound, is particularly noteworthy, and it's said that Randy Rhoads was also seeking that sound. The exterior also differs from previous and current models, with a roughened surface. Another distinctive feature of this model is the emphasis on bass compared to current models, resulting in a warmer sound. Furthermore, the distortion level changes in response to the guitar's volume, allowing you to use it with the same feeling as plugging it directly into an amp.
