Catalinbread Topanga Burnside Spring Reverb Pedal

Based on: An outboard Fender 6G15 spring reverb unit from the ‘60s
Topanga Burnside: Has all the springy, surfy mojo of the original Topanga but now features a Trem knob that controls the rate of a lush tremolo effect.
What makes it different: The internal spring reverb is run *in front* of the amp, causing the reverb signal to distort and sound more intense.
Tone Knob: The Tone knob allows the treble to be dialed back to just the right degree of brightnes
Dwell Knob: The Dwell knob controls how hard the springs are getting hit by the guitar signal.

Catalinbread Soft Focus Shoegaze Pedal (CAT SOFTFOCUS)

At its heart, the Soft Focus is a heavily modified plate reverb with adjustable time, which is subsequently split into three
Intended to be an instant shoegaze button, while addressing the most glaring issues of the original unit
The Mod knob controls the rate of the chorus on path one, and the Symphony knob controls the level of the octave on path two
One path contains a “symphonic” chorus modulator, another features a well-appointed octave-up mixed in with the reverb, and the third path leaves the reverb untouched
All controls are "coupled" to the tone of the reverb to give users an expansive playing field of sounds to discover and fine tune

Catalinbread Sabbra Cadabra Boost Overdrive Guitar Effects Pedal

Optimized for drop-tuning but works equally well for standard tuning thanks to the RANGE control
Range, Gain, Presence and Vol 4 controls
Range control allows you to 'customize' the treble-booster section of the circuit and adjust it anywhere from treble-boost to full-range boost.
Customize the treble-booster section of the circuit and adjust it anywhere from treble-boost to full-range boost
Custom-tuned Rangemaster-based booster combined with the pre-amp section of a Laney Supergroup

Catalinbread Csidman Glitch Stutter Delay Guitar Effects Pedal

MIX: Gives you control over the wet/dry balance from 100% wet to 100% dry.
TIME: Controls the echo delay line's delay time up to 725mS, as well as the rate of the glitch.
LATCH: controls the relative time in a cycle that the CSIDMAN is in a latching skipping state.
FEED: Controls the amount of feedback going back into the unit.
CUTS: (used in conjunction with the LATCH knob) controls the buffer memory length.

Catalinbread Many Worlds 8 Stage Phaser, Multi (853710004741)

Yes, you can get classic, swirly and rich, vibrato-esque phaser sounds out of our phaser. The fun doesn't stop there, however; we take you on a multi-versed quest of Many Worlds to uncover unique, out-there sounds.
8 stage phaser with 8 selectable phase control parameters, 6 LFO's and 2 Envelope dependent phase shift
The idea for Many Worlds began when we were experimenting with different LFOs for a phaser project––initially to see if we could make something akin to a phase 90 but a little more wild. We eventually started modulating one LFO with another. This is where the name Many Worlds comes from.
The 'Many Worlds' interpretation of quantum mechanics is an idea by a man named Hugh Everette which states that quantum wave function collapse is actually the superposition of quantum states built by the decoherence of independent wave functions.
Lastly, we thought of having an envelope dependent phase shift to have that drippy phase sound but not sounding like a sine wave LFO is driving the phase shift.

Catalinbread Montavillian Echo Pedal

Features: An obsolete delay processing IC that achieves a fantastic sounding delay
Montavillan Echo: Designed to make the dry signal sound and feel better when on than with the pedal bypassed.
The Montavillian handles it all with no effort.
Need more headroom?: The Montavillian can be run at 18V.
Great Headroom: It has great headroom and stacking abilities, which are often shortcomings of echo pedals

Catalinbread Belle Epoch Tape Echo, Black and Silver, (CAT BELLEEPOCH)

Inspired by the Maestro Echoplex, EP-3 model, perhaps the most famous tape delay ever, the Belle Epoch features everything we love about the EP-3 in a small, maintenance free pedal format
Has tape echo sounds so authentic you'd swear there was tape inside the pedal!
We felt that a “tape echo” pedal was much more than just a standard digital delay with some “filtering” on the repeats. There are a lot of subtle and not-so-subtle traits of the Echoplex that needed to be implemented in order to be authentic
The preamp, the self-oscillation character, the ability to control the “record level” of the signal hitting “tape”, the wow and flutter, the way the repeats decay, the way the circuit interfaces with the amp and other pedals – all these things were important to get right
The original unit was used as a musical instrument unto itself and this is what we captured with the Belle Epoch
You can also vary the amount of transistor gain for some extra juice
Lets you dial in the desired frequency range from rich and full to treble-heavy, as well as control the amount of boost
SKEW: Adjusts the frequency response of the boost, which also slightly affects the gain. When dialed fully counter-clockwise, you get full range and max gain. When dialed fully clockwise, you get the stock setting of the original H-S Treble Booster
EXTRA: Adjusts level of gain extracted from the transistor. Crank this setting to get rowdy
BOOST: Adjusts the amount of boost. Stock H-S setting is about 2/3 up

Catalinbread Dreamcoat Guitar Preamp

Clean blend circuit that begins after the frequency boost and ends after the tape preamp, so you can EQ the sum of your clean tone and dirt, all while preserving your pick attack and presence
Frequency booster circuit that doesn't cut anything, giving you a richer tone with a little oomph where it counts
The whole shebang runs at 20V, just a hair higher than the original Aiwa, expanding its capabilities and delivering tons of headroom
International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.

Catalinbread Zero Point Flanger Guitar Pedal

It is a REAL TIME effect not a typical modulation effect.
The Zero Point Flanger is the most direct analogy to studio tape flanging that anybody has come up with.
Unlike all other pedal flangers, there is no LFO that presents a predictable up and down swooshing sound, the trite flanger effect that died in the 80s.
It is a straight-forward pedal that has only one powerful control that behaves like pressing and holding your thumb on tape flange.

Catalinbread Formula 51 Tweed Style Overdrive (CAT Form

Sag control loads down the transformer to your taste
Features a preamp, a phase inverter and an output transformer to deliver the full touch-sensitive Tweed experience
Grip of extremely interactive controls
Final control is straight out of the vintage amplifier playbook, incorporating the mid scoop control of the Framus Cobra amp

Catalinbread Callisto MKII Chorus Pedal

Vibrato
Bucket Brigade Chus Pedal with Feedback Control
Flange

Catalinbread Fuzzrite Germanium (CATFUZZRITEGE)

Unlike the original, we've added a toggle switch to shift into modern mode, significantly beefing up the low-end content to suit more contemporary rigs
Just like the original, the Catalinbread Fuzzrite Germanium includes two NOS PNP germanium semiconductors with a polarity inverter IC so it plays nice with all forms of power
Weight: .4 lbs
Product Dimensions: 1.96" X 2.36" X 4.33"

Catalinbread Tribute All-Gain Parametric Overdrive

The back end of the Tribute pays homage to one of our oldest designs, the VariOboost
All-analog circuit that combines an extremely expressive high-headroom drive engine with an obscenely powerful and flexible tone control
When Drive is rolled all the way down, you get your pristinely buffered clean signal with a gentle treble filter. When it's all the way up, maximum gain is achieved with no clean signal present. Anywhere in between gives you a carefully balanced clean-drive combo that lets your tone breathe at all positions.
Turning the Drive knob affects two parameters at once - clean blend and overdrive gain
This circuit gives you a supercharged one-band parametric EQ in lieu of a tone control for some serious studio-esque tone sculpting power

Catalinbread CB Dual Tap Tempo Pedal with TRS Cable, Black and Silver (CAT CBTAP)

Not only adds tap functionality to the Belle Epoch Deluxe, but also connects to anything with a tap-tempo out (excluding Boss pedals and other non normally-open taps)
External tap tempo mechanism that was built to connect to our Belle Epoch Deluxe
To use the CB Tap with the Belle Epoch Deluxe: Plug one end of the 1/4” TRS cable into the expression output of the Deluxe and the other end into the “DLX” input of the CB Tap, then start tapping and the LED indicator will follow along
To use the CB Tap with another pedal (even simultaneously as the Deluxe): Plug one end of the 1/4” TRS cable into any non-Boss pedal's tap out and plug the other end into the “Tap” input of the CB Tap, then start tapping. The LED indicator will not light up when using non-Deluxe pedals
Comes with a Catalinbread-branded six-inch 1/4” TRS patch cable to connect it to whichever pedal you decide to use
Same internal circuitry as a real EP-3, from the NOS Orange Drop capacitors to the output mixer stage that acts as a rudimentary frequency selector---it's all there
Sounds like your base tone, but sculpted to perfection by a mastering engineer
We've taken the liberty of kicking the internal voltage all the way up to 22 volts, just like the original unit, giving you unparalleled headroom and clarity
The Boost control gives you just the EP-3 tone when rolled off, but adds up to 20dB of crystal-clear boost as you crank it
Includes a switchable hi-Z input buffer if you'd like to use the Epoch Boost as your only pedal
