Darkglass Electronics Unveils the Microtubes B1K Overdrive Pedal
Darkglass Electronics has been working on streamlining their designs, and now they’re launching an all-new lineup with the Microtubes B1K. They call the compact pedal a “phenomenal tribute to one of our most legendary distortion circuits.”
The B1K has two stacked knobs to dial in your level. A magnetic bottom lid gives you access to pots to control your blend and tone. A set of DIP switches let you activate the Grunt (a low end boost) and Mboost, which gives a subtle 6dB boost from 300Hz to kHz.
The Darkglass B1K will be available soon with a price point of $149.
