Wampler’s Tumnus Deluxe “sets the new standard” for Klon-style overdrive pedals
Three-band EQ and multiple gain levels onboard
Wampler won plaudits for the Tumnus, its mini-pedal take on the classic Klon Centaur overdrive, and now the company claims to have perfected the formula with the Tumnus Deluxe.
Promising to “set the new standard” for Klon-style drives, the Tumnus Deluxe offers a three-band active EQ to shape the sound to your liking, plus a normal/hot toggle switch for enhanced gain.
What’s more, a handy side-mounted switch toggles between buffered and true bypass, too.
The Tumnus Deluxe is available now for $199.97/£189 - see Wampler Pedals for more info.
