Description

The MXR M78 Custom Badass ’78 Distortion delivers powerful, old-school distortion inspired by classic rock tones, with a hot-rodded circuit designed for extra gain, rich harmonics and amp-like response. From punchy rhythm riffs to soaring lead solos, this versatile pedal produces thick, saturated tones with plenty of character. The CRUNCH switch adds extra harmonic content and dynamic response, giving you two distinct distortion flavours at the push of a button. With simple, intuitive controls and a rugged metal housing, the M78 is a great choice for guitarists chasing everything from vintage hard rock to aggressive modern tones.
