Mayfly Launches Two New Pedals for Fall

Mayfly Launches Two New Pedals for Fall

Creamsicle

With features like volume and gain controls, sparkle switch, and waveform shape control, these pedals are designed to be a must-have for any guitarist.


The Creamsicle has that low-gain English rock tone you've been looking for. It’ll remind you of that JCM45 that you deeply regret selling during the hair metal years, but it’s a lot lighter and can get that tone at a much lower volume. Gain and Volume controls, along with tone control, sparkle switch, and a three-position pre-amp gain switch. Go from 'creamy' to 'crunchy' with a twist of the dial and the flick of a switch. Try it with your favorite fuzz for even more - just like you did with that half-stack back in 1966.

Terrain

The Terrain is a tremolo with a difference: Its circuitry is designed to be as open and HiFi as possible. It features optical coupling to keep Low-Frequency Oscillator (LFO) noise out of the audio path. In addition to Speed and Depth controls it also features a waveform shape control to fine-tune that throb. It includes a gain control to make up for any perceived volume loss at high Depth settings. But most importantly, it features high input impedance, low distortion, full bandwidth, low noise, and high fidelity circuitry that stays crystal clear. You’re going to love it.

The Creamsicle features:

  • Classic 1960’s English rock tone.
  • Volume and Gain controls.
  • Two-pole tone control.
  • Sparkle switch.
  • Three way preamp gain switch.
  • Full bypass (of course).
  • 9VDC, 31mA.
  • MAP price: $145

The Old Blood Dark Star Stereo (DSS) is one of those pedals that lives beyond simple effect categorization. Yes, it’s a digital reverb. But like other Old Blood designs, it’s such a feature-rich, creative take on that effect that to think of it as a reverb feels not only imprecise but unfair.
