Retro-Sonic Inc.® announces the latest addition to their popular vintage-inspired boutique effect pedal line. The Distortion pedal is based on a LM308 op-amp design, and features true bypass with Distortion, Tone and level controls. Together, these provide a wide range of tonal possibilities, from subtly distorted blues tones through to classic rock and metal.

Retro-Sonic® will debut the Distortion pedal at the Summer NAMM show in Nashville, from June 20-22, 2008.

As added flexibility, Retro-Sonic ® has incorporated two internal trim pots to allow adjustment to the frequency response of the gain structure. This gives Distortion users the option to tailor the overall response of the pedal to taste, by reducing or increasing the mix of high or low end content. More tonal flexibility can be explored through multiple clipping options via a 3 position mini toggle switch selects symmetrical-diode, asymmetrical-diode, or LED clipping.

The Retro-Sonic® Distortion is a professional quality effect pedal that recaptures the much sought-after "vintage vibe". It is a truly versatile and musical pedal design that responds to touch, producing a big, natural, harmonically rich tone that works with any guitar-pedal-amp configuration.

The Distortion effect pedal uses a standard negative tip 9v adaptor or battery. Highest quality components, handmade details and stringent testing, set the Retro-Sonic ® line above other boutique effects.

A passion for true 'vintage vibes' and handmade quality has allowed Retro-Sonic ® to quickly build a loyal international following and strong base among musicians and studios alike. According to Tim Larwill, Retro-Sonic® Founder , "With the addition of our Distortion pedal, we round out a great line up including: Chorus, Phaser, Compressor, Overdrive, Boost and Delay. It's incredible how well these pedals compliment each other. We are confident that 'hearing is believing' and each product that is shipped to artists and distributors is made by hand and then tested by me, to ensure that our pedals are among the best available."

The Distortion effect pedal will debut at Summer NAMM in Nashville, June 20-22, 2008. Visit the Retro-Sonic® team and demo their entire line of boutique effect pedals at the NAMM show at Booth # 1646. Product will ship in June, 2008.
