Distortion to die for.

The Akai Professional Deluxe Distortion guitar effects pedal is the flagship of the Analog Custom Shop product line. Deluxe Distortion combines distortion, advanced tone-control and amplifier simulation in heavy-duty polished stainless-steel housing. True-bypass switching, adjustable frequency knobs, amp simulation and tone toggle switches provide precision control.

Deluxe Distortion’s EQ mode toggle-switch provides detailed tone control with a choice of Modern, Normal or Classic. The three settings change the eq curves to mimic classic EQ circuits.

Dir Rec switch provides emulation of amplifier power and speaker perfect for direct input to a mixer, DAW or other amplification or recording device.

Choose between three drive circuits with the Fat, Boost, Warm tone Drive³ toggle-switch enabling soaring leads, powerful chords and satisfying rhythm tones. Tone may be further adjusted using the six precision knobs and High Cut toggle-switch.

Deluxe Distortion is powered by the included 9-volt battery or 9v DC adapter (sold separately).

The Analog Custom Shop consists of these pedals: Phase Shifter, Analog Delay, Blues Overdrive, Chorus, Compressor, DRIVE ³ Overdrive, Deluxe Distortion, Flanger, DRIVE ³ Fuzz, and DRIVE ³ Distortion.
