The Capstone is a tribute to the concept of "Transparent Overdrive," preserving your guitar’s natural tone while offering the flexibility to add grit and even push it into a subtle fuzz-like territory. Unlike conventional drive pedals that lock you into preset circuit modes, the Capstone empowers you to shape its output with adjustable parameters. Its controls interact in a uniquely dynamic way—while the gain functions as expected, it’s also influenced by the Mid and Bass controls. Increasing the mids and bass enhances the grit, setting this pedal apart from others. Additionally, it can deliver pristine, glassy cleans, making single-coil pickups sparkle with that unbeatable classic tone.
Curious about the mod switch? Flipping it to the left engages the stock diode clipping mode, while switching it to the right introduces a pair of NOS NPN Germanium transistors, adding more grit and a distinct fuzz-like character. The more time you spend with the Capstone, the more you'll appreciate its versatility. Try one today and experience how it can elevate your sound.
