**I am currently building a few of these to order. Please allow approximately 7 business days turnaround time. Thanks!
The Artwork Series features original artwork by local artists. The work for Sting was done by Minnesota artist James Martin.
Sting is a small, simple twin Jfet circuit, but it packs a major punch. Good things come in small packages and whatnot. Named after the Elvin dagger/sword from The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings books, this pedal may become your own secret weapon for it's distinct 3 dimensional overdrive sound. The edge of the sword gives off a blue glow when the pedal is activated.
Voicing is warm and crunchy. This is not your typical overdrive pedal. It uses no clipping diodes, so what you get is all smooth crunch from the Jfet transistors. (Some people love this one on Bass as well)
As you turn up the Gain control, it allows more low frequencies into the circuit, fattening up the sound significantly.
Tone control is your typical treble cut, but dialed in to a range that makes it very usable throughout the travel of the knob, without allowing it to get piercingly bright.
These pedals are made using high quality components:
- Aluminum plate laser cut in Minneapolis, MN and folded into enclosures in the Wrought Iron shop.
- All of these enclosures were laser etched, folded, and finished in the Wrought Iron Shop in Amery, WI.
- DeMont footswitch
- PCBs made in USA
- All circuitry is populated and soldered by hand using repairable, through hole construction. (hint: you can mod it too, if you so choose...)
The graphics are laser etched into black texture powdercoat. This process allows more detail from the original artwork to show than acid-etching. The finish is protected with 3 layer of ceramic hybrid wax, applied and buffed by hand.
