Catalinbread Sabbra Cadabra Boost Overdrive Pedal

Voiced to mimic the combination of Iommi's Laney Supergroup amp and Rangemaster treble booster, the Sabbra Cadabra nails Sabbath tone even at low volumes.
Overview
Tony Iommi arguably had the most influential tone in the history of electric guitar. Really, when you think Black Sabbath you immediately think "Electric Guitar." His early signature sound was the result of an always on treble-booster plugged into cranked Laney Supergroup amps. This approach to guitar is extremely rewarding and fun, but lost in this day and age because honestly who can really get away with the stage volume anymore? Far and few between! Catalinbread designed the Sabbra Cadabra to give players that sonic experience, re-contextualized for today's approach where players tend to use amps solely within their clean range at more mortal volume levels.
The Sabbra Cadabra is a custom-tuned Rangemaster-based booster combined with the preamp section of a Laney Supergroup. The two circuits are carefully voiced together to achieve the riffs of doom tone that Tony Iommi is so well known for. Four controls (RANGE, GAIN, PRESENCE, and VOL 4) allow you to fine-tune the response to your guitar and rig. If you're familiar with Sabbath's live album, 'Past Lives', then you'll understand where they were going with this pedal - huge, raw, responsive!
- Optimized for drop-tuning but works equally well for standard tuning thanks to the RANGE control
- Customize the treble-booster section of the circuit and adjust it anywhere from treble-boost to full-range boost
