The Acorn Amplifiers Mind Killer is a dual distortion device that promises to deliver huge gain tones to any rig. It features two separately stomp-able distortion circuits in series, each with its own bass boost and clipper diode toggle switches. This allows for a wide range of tonal possibilities and a mélange of stackable crunch tones in a single stompbox.

The Mind Killer is designed to provide total obliteration in the form of huge gain tones, making it suitable for a variety of musical styles and genres. Its dual-channel design allows for independent control over each distortion circuit, giving players the flexibility to create a wide range of tones and textures.

The Kakarot Fuzz is a hybrid fuzz circuit featuring one germainium transistor feeding into one silicon transistor which is then sent through a pair of LEDs for boosted clipping. The Kakarot dual transistor circuit can sweep between overdrive, distortion, and fuzz tones with the turn of the Fuzz knob. The Level control adds flexibility to the overall output of the pedal, enabling you to dial in the perfect position of your signal in the mix. Top-mount Switchcraft jacks, robust latching footswitch, and durable 125B aluminum enclosure make the Kakarot fuzz ready to take your pedalboard power level over 9000!

Kakarot Fuzz

Can you say…Mississippi Marshall!?! A pedal inspired by some of the most iconic rock music from the past four decades. A studio secret weapon for achieving wiry and aggressive tones for guitar, bass, and even drums and vocals. The latest release from Acorn Amplifiers, the Solid State Preamplifier, is your way to recreate those highly sought after sounds. Packed into a slim pedal enclosure and loaded with features, the Solid State Preamplifier features the ‘normal’ and ‘saturated’ channels as foot-switchable tone modes, as well as an added ‘thick’ switch that provides heavy low end and added gain. Also, without the added cost of the power amp circuitry, the Solid State Preamplifier is nearly half of the price of the original Acorn Solid State Amp/Preamp.
