A Pedal named after a motorcycle?Yup. The motorcycle in question was known for its sophistication, grace, and elegance. It was also known for having so much power it would lift the front wheel effortlessly when you twisted the throttle. The Velvet Sledgehammer distortion pedal has the same kind of feel. It has beautifully tuned EQ with an active midrange control and a two-pole highs control. But crank on that distortion knob and you'll get sustain and harmonics that will make you feel you're doing a wheelie all the way down the block. Liquid leads. Clear power chords. As soon as you plug in you'll understand. vrrooom!
