The Litigator was inspired by the blues rock sounds of Britain in the early 1960s, known to some as the "beano" tone, and to others as the "Bluesbreaker" sound. But don't be fooled — this is not a clone of Marshall's famous and often replicated Bluesbreaker pedal.
The Litigator is an original, transistor-based design that uses two gain stages to achieve a creamy, sparkly overdrive with an almost fuzz-like character not found in most overdrive pedals. Keep the gain low for just a hint of crunch, or crank it up for a lead-worthy overdriven tone that gets plenty dirty while maintaining note clarity when you strum chords. The pedal also includes a tone control that allows you cut highs or crank them for that extra sparkle.
