Metal Pedals has introduced the brand new Smokestack overdrive, a collaboration with guitar ace Johnny Hiland.


Supremely versatile and ideal for rock, country and blues, the Smokestack joins the company's highly regarded line of organic tone shaping overdrive / distortion pedals.

Designed for the discriminating ear of Johnny Hiland, the Smokestack features all hand-wired discrete circuitry and delivers a huge variety of tones, ranging from mild overdrive to high-gain distortion.

This unique pedal sports four controls: Gain, Tone, and Volume, along with a Gain Bump toggle switch. The switch instantly kicks in some extra aggression and overdrive, rich in its harmonic structure and singing sustain, yet still maintaining clarity and articulation.
