We're excited to be carrying Benevale Designs at SSGB. This pedal has to be one of the most transparent and organically rich overdrives on the market today. If you love the way your amp sounds, then the Colt 45 will give you more of it. 

The Colt 45 will also liven up any amp in need of some sparkle and tube-like breakup.

This pedals circuit can be described as almost a Klon without the mid-hump. We're releasing this pedal with an introductory pricing of just $179.99. 

From Benevale Designs: 

"We designed the BENEVALE Colt 45 from our experiences of being music studio engineers wanting more articulation and organic sound from an electric guitar pedal or rack gear. Our goal with the Colt 45 was to create a transparent overdrive that gives you the organic slight breakup from a pushed tube amplifier that is in its zone. The Colt 45 works best with a Fender-style amp that is set clean or at the edge of breakup. We prefer to use the Colt 45 with all knobs set at one or two o'clock plugged into a clean tube amp. This gives you a beautiful dynamic breakup that increases as you pick harder. This becomes a great always-on foundational pedal for your overdrives and fuzzes to go before it to push it to higher gain levels. One of the great aspects of the Colt 45 is that it will clean up with the turn of your volume knob on your guitar. With that said, the output volume and the drive knob do interact with each other and affect each one's sound. For example, if you choose to have the drive knob at ten or eleven o'clock, you must increase the output volume to three or four o'clock on the dial. The Colt 45 adds so much color to any bland-sounding amp setup. It gives the player a great number of overtones at the tip of his or her fingers. To accomplish this on some amps, you will need to increase the volume to extreme levels that can be too loud for an average band setting. Luckily with Colt45, you can accomplish that at bedroom levels!"
