- Precision matched components-using proprietary specifications to ensure
symmetrical clipping and reduced intermodulation distortion. This allows
complex chords to be heard with total definition and clarity at any level
of overdrive.
- True bypass switching with led indicator- this is achieved by using an high grade switch, in addendum Solid 20 gauge copper hookup wire is used between the jacks and switching to create a transparent bypass.
- Full size pots- for durability and for easy serviceability if needed.
- Hand made-we make the Burn Unit one at a time and each one is signed and
dated by the craftsman.
- Volume knob response circuitry-numerous shades and textures at your fingertips
just by adjusting your volume knob.
- Cast aluminum enclosure-our incredibly durable enclosure will last decades
if not centuries!
- Double sided pc board with plate through holes-This is the way the military
does it when they want electronics to work FOREVER! all pedals should be
made this way , few are.
- Unique pivot style 9 volt battery clip- Our Battery clip uses an eccentric
pivot to swivel the battery clip in and out of the unit for durable long
life operation.
- Nine knob control for tonal versatility-The Burn Unit uses Seven (including
internal trim pots) control knobs as follows, level 1, level 2, tone, deep,
dynamics and sustain 1, sustain 2. Internal controls for presence, midrange
and bass. These controls allow the Burn Unit to produce sounds ranging from
sweet subtle sustain to smooth singing California amp style tones!
- Burn Unit character-The Burn Unit has a strong flavor or character, much
the same as good champagne, beer, coffee, etc. The Burn Unit becomes a very
noticeable part of your sound that the listener will not soon forget.
- Barber adjustable phono style recovery stage- Most of our op-amp based overdrive pedals use a cool old style phonograph circuit to recover the frequencies lost in the overdrive stage, this worked great for vinyl and now works great for guitar overdrive!
- High quality components- Players have requested the use of carbon resistors, metalized polyester caps. These components were thought to be only available on the highest priced pedals. Players asked, and we deliver...no problem, no exaggerated "boutique builder" pricing.
The Sound
The Burn Unit delivers some of the most sought after tones
ever! By using unique circuitry and implementing a dynamics control which
is continuously variable, the great tones of the past, present and future
are available to the discriminating guitarist. Users can dial in explosive
pick attack with total note definition which resolves chords as harmonically
rich as 13ths and maj7's with absolute clarity! The Burn Unit can also create
a fat semi-clean boost which will warm up even the coldest of amplifiers while
providing a walloping punch in level !!
