A peculiar-looking pedal based on the classic Electra Distortion circuit, the Pedal Tree Retro1 is an overdrive that adds an extra gain stage to the original circuit, together with a modified Big Muff Pi tone stack for unconventional tone results.
It delivers the organic crunch of vintage tweed amps, perfect for blues, rock, and anything that demands warm, dynamic breakup.
Housed in a rugged enclosure with handcrafted hardwood side panels (maple, beech, or cherry), each RETRO1 is as visually striking as it sounds. A small bottle of linseed oil is included to maintain the wood’s natural luster.
Limited quantities of this pedal are available, each one hand-built in Germany and unique.
