      <g:title>Mesos Drive/Boost/Fuzz</g:title>
      <g:description>Doom-ready gain with a big tone control

Built for the riff heads, the low-tuners, the fuzz stackers and amp melters — Mesos is tuned for tones that hit like a sandstorm. It’s not a one-flavour fuzz: it can sit as an always-on boost/drive, push into crunchy “british-ish” grind, or tip over into hairy, glitchy-leaning fuzz chaos when you want the wheels to come off.

The secret weapon is the Tone control — wide range, very amp-like, and actually useful. Dial in sharp, crispy bite, or swing it back to warm, dusty vintage thickness. Pair that with the Gain/Vol interplay and you can either “wake up” a dull amp or absolutely pound the front end.

Tone overview

Low gain: smoky, vintage amp breakup — slow blues, psych intros, edge-of-breakup push
Mid gain: chewy crunch with a fuzzy edge — old-school stoner grit
Maxed: harmonic overload and dusty doom bloom — from smooth fuzz to “hairy scary” meltdown


What it’s great for

Downtuned guitars, baritones, and bass-friendly gain
Stacking into other fuzz/drive pedals (or being the whole gain section)
Turning a clean amp into a fire-breathing riff machine
Adding filth + tone shaping + “fidelity bump” without losing feel

Features

True bypass
Soft-touch footswitch
9V DC, centre-negative (standard pedal power, no battery here folks)</g:description>

      <g:title>Maiko - Overdrive to Distortion</g:title>
      <g:description>Maiko is a touch-sensitive gain pedal that lives in that “amp-like” sweet spot: open, responsive, and happy to follow your hands. Set it low for warm crunch and edge-of-breakup grit, push it for thick, harmonically rich drive, or wind it up into full-bodied distortion that still stays articulate.

It also cleans up beautifully from your guitar’s volume knob—roll back for clearer, chimey drive; roll up and dig in for bigger, meaner tones. Whether you’re running a squeaky-clean amp or something already on the edge, Maiko slots in and feels natural.

What it’s great for:

Always-on “just breaking up” feel with touchy dynamics
Thick, mix-forward overdrive for riffs and leads
Gnarlier distortion tones without turning into mush
Stacking with other drives (especially boosts and mid-gain ODs)

Specs:

Runs on standard 9V DC, centre-negative (no battery, we don't need no stinkin' batteries man)
Top-mounted jacks (board-friendly)
Hand-built and ready to drop on your board</g:description>

      <g:title>The Beacon</g:title>
      <g:description>Beacon takes the vibe of ’60s broadcast consoles and drops it on your board: rich, harmonically charged saturation that can go from chimey hi-fi lift to thick, vintage-console overdrive — and beyond.

In its lower-gain range, Beacon works as a sparkling clean boost and transparent drive with heaps of output to push your amp. As you wind it up, the circuit starts to compress and saturate in a really musical way, thickening the mids and adding that “recorded” chew that makes riffs feel bigger.

Flip the Gain switch and Beacon steps into heavier territory — warmer, grittier, and fuzz-edged without losing dynamics. The low-end control lets you keep it tight and punchy or let it bloom and get woolly, which makes it a killer stacker and a perfect match for single coils, humbuckers, and different amp flavours.

What it’s great for:

Always-on preamp “sweetener” that makes your amp feel larger
Sparkly boost into edge-of-breakup amps
Chewy console-style overdrive with dynamic pick response
Warm, fuzzy drive tones with the Gain switch engaged
Dialling tight vs big low end depending on your rig

Key features

Gain switch for instant low/high gain voicing
Responsive low-end control (tighten up or let it bloom)
Dynamic, touch-sensitive feel that cleans up with playing intensity

Specs: 
9V DC, centre-negative (standard pedal power, no batteries here folks)
Top-mounted jacks (board-friendly)

Made to order. Typical timeframe is 4-6 weeks.</g:description>

      <g:title>Freq! Booster</g:title>
      <g:description>The Freq! Booster is a flexible EQ and gain tool that lets you slice, scoop, or slam your tone at the frequency of your choice.

Features:
3 controls: Frequency, 12dB Boost/Cut, Gain
Wide EQ sweep from deep lows to sharp presence
True bypass
Relay-based soft switching
Runs on standard 9V DC (centre negative)

      <g:title>Killing It: Low/Medium Gain Overdrive</g:title>
      <g:description>The Killing-It overdrive is all about touch sensitivity, harmonic richness, and amp-like response.

Based on the revered Clark Gainster and Hoochie Mama circuits, this pedal delivers a dynamic, full-bodied drive that enhances your tone rather than masking it.
Whether you're looking for a subtle push, thick sustain, or something in between, Killing-It does exactly that—without sacrificing clarity.

More Than Just a Boost:
Unlike conventional mid-humped overdrives, this circuit keeps your low end intact and avoids excessive compression. It works with your amp, rather than forcing its own character onto your sound. Think of it as an always-on tone enhancer—or a gritty, fat drive when you push it hard.

Simple, Effective Controls:
Level – Sets the output volume
Presence – dials in warmth or edge without getting harsh.
Gain – Ranges from clean boost to saturated overdrive, all with incredible note definition.

Whether you’re stacking it with other drives, pushing a clean amp into break-up, or adding warmth to a sterile tone, the Killing-It delivers smooth, amp-like grit without muddying your signal.

      <g:title>Copy That Double Tracker</g:title>
      <g:description>The Copy That Double Tracker brings the thick, wide magic of multi-tracked recordings straight to your board.

This pedal adds instant depth, dimension and a sense of space, utilising finely tuned micro-delays and pitch offsets.

Whether you're fattening up a solo, widening a riff, or just want your clean tones to sit a little bigger in the mix, The Copy That doesn’t just copy – it enhances.

It’s not quite chorus. It’s not just slapback. It’s the sound of doubling done right.


Copy that?

      <g:title>Rattenkonig Distortion</g:title>
      <g:description>The RattenKönig takes a classic circuit and opens up a range of tonal possibilities. With multiple clipping options, and expanded controls, this is built for those who want more than just the standard snarl.

At its heart, it still delivers that classic thick, harmonically rich distortion. But with switchable clipping modes, you can shape the character of your drive to suit any style:

Silicon (S1 + S1) – Classic bite: tight, aggressive, and cutting.
Germanium (S1 + GE) – Warmer, smoother, with natural compression.
LED – Louder, more open, with a punchier feel.
MOSFET + Germanium – Rich, amp-like response with extra harmonics.
No Clipping – Pure op-amp distortion, raw and unfiltered.

Four Knobs, Tonnes of Character:
VOL – Adjusts overall output.
FILTR – The signature tone-shaping tool, from dark to cutting.
DIST – Controls gain and saturation.
LUBE – Adds grit and alters response for finer control.

With its expanded feature set, The RattenKönig is a distortion lab in a box, whether you want vintage warmth, modern bite, or something uniquely your own. 

Long live The RattenKönig.
