Mr. Black Introduces the CAT Distortion Pedal

Renowned pedal firebrand Mr. Black has introduced the CAT distortion pedal, a unique take on one of the world’s most beloved – and bruising – circuits.


One look at the CAT and you will see the inspiration; one look inside the CAT reveals an entirely new circuit, with some clever tricks slipped in to reduce noise, strengthen tone and push high-gain: hard.

The CAT Distortion doles out heaps of saturated harmonic-laden gain, while maintaining low noise, cleaning up via the guitar’s volume knob and pumping out powerful low-z output, very well equipped to drive long cables and large effects chains with authority.
