An homage to the early NASA launch vehicle, and an alternate reimagining of our Mercury platform, the Redstone is designed to be a stable and pervasive companion on your ventures across the cosmos of sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the Mercury as an inspiration to build upon, the Redstone offers additional control over gain, and tone compared to its older sister. The first stage and tone stack are built to closely emulate the input stage of a tube amp. The core gain cell is a discrete opamp with high headroom, capable of 40dB of gain. This beautifully integrated combination yields amazingly rich and detailed layers of harmonic sparkle, lending dimension and muscle to your tone when pushed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe highly interactive tone controls offer plenty of bright bite, midrange clang, and thumping bass making the Redstone ideal for many purposes. When used at the beginning of your signal chain, it can function as a tweakable tone shaper, or even an overdrive. When used at the end of your pedal board the Redstone serves as an excellent line driver and boost. For those seeking a more transparent sound, the high and low controls can be lowered to minimum, with mid at noon, for a big natural rendering of your base tone. There's also plenty of organic oomph for lower tuned instruments like basses and baritones to enjoy as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTruly Hand Crafted\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-wired and built in Portland, Oregon, the Redstone features true-bypass relay switching with a soft-touch footswitch. On top of the cast-aluminum enclosure sits a durable, engraved vinyl faceplate and jewel indicator light. This pedal is built to last a lifetime, both on Earth or in the vacuum of space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eUp to 40dB of gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eWide Range 3-band Tone Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eDiscrete Opamp Featuring a Hand Selected, Vintage NOS Germanium Transistor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eHigher Headroom Available When Run at 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eWell Suited to Bass and Baritone in Addition to Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eAll Analog Signal Path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eHand-Wired\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eBuilt in Portland, OR, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eMint Condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAny questions, please ask!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Legal Disclaimer: Due to the nature of Pre-Owned Products, Bananas At Large Inc. does not claim this instrument to be 100% original.
