Pigtronix Announces New Philosopher’s Tone Germanium Gold Micro Pedal
Pigtronix has announced its new Philosopher’s Tone Germanium Gold Micro pedal.
This new pedal takes the original Philosopher's Tone optical sustain engine and allows players to add a layer of germanium distortion. The pedal features blend, volume and sustain controls, while the Gold incarnation adds a grit control to blend in the germanium distortion.
The Philosopher’s Tone Germanium Gold Micro also comes with true bypass switching and a 9V power supply operation, which is doubled internally to increase headroom, clarity and output.
You can watch a demo of the pedal below.
The Philosopher’s Tone Germanium Gold Micro is available now for $134. For more info on the pedal, head on over to pigtronix.com.
