Zoom 505II Guitar Multi-Effects Pedal

Featuring a sleek new design, easy analog operation, 9 powerful new guitar effects, and amp modeling, the 505 II Guitar takes the world's most popular compact multi-effects guitar pedal to a new standard of performance.

The 505 II's molded chassis with its sleek, flowing lines and Silver finish offers a stylish appearance that's built to last. Extremely durable space-age plastic and a flat control surface take the worry out of carrying it in the same case with other gear.

As part of its enhanced design, the 505 II Guitar Pedal features new distortion effects including Clean, Scream, Wild, and Shred; along with new modulation effects such as Cry, Tremolo, Ring Modulation, Slow Attack, and Echo.

The 505 MKII includes a total of 33 guitar effects, arranged in 7 modules. Up to 9 effects can be used at the same time. In addition to 12 different types of smooth, rich distortion sounds, the 505II features world-famous guitar amp sounds created using Zoom's proprietary VAMS (Variable Architecture Modeling System) technology.

A large rotary selector, easy-to-read red LED display and foot switches make the 505 II truly user friendly. Sounds can be easily stored in up to 36 patch locations.

Other features include: ZNR (Zoom Noise Reduction); 28 hours of continuous operation with 4 size AA alkaline batteries plus AC operation; a rear panel input for an expression pedal; integrated auto chromatic tuner; and more.
