Disturbator II

Experience dynamic, amp-like distortion with the Disturbator II, a sophisticated gain pedal that combines vintage-inspired warmth with exceptional touch-sensitivity and tonal versatility. This isn’t just another distortion box, it’s a meticulously voiced circuit that delivers singing, harmonically rich overdrive and distortion that responds to every nuance of your playing.

The Disturbator II’s character is defined by its open, uncompressed feel and sweet midrange saturation. Unlike pedals that flatten your dynamics, this circuit maintains remarkable responsiveness. Dig in hard for aggressive, saturated tones with singing sustain, or ease up for cleaner, more articulate sounds. The result is a living, breathing distortion that feels more like cranking a great tube amp than stomping on a pedal.

At the heart of the Disturbator II is a carefully balanced gain structure that excels across a wide range of settings. Lower gain yields warm, bluesy crunch with excellent clarity for rhythm work. As you increase the drive, you’ll find thick, creamy lead tones with smooth harmonic complexity and natural compression. The pedal’s voice remains consistently musical, never harsh or brittle, with a balanced frequency response that sits perfectly in any mix.

The intuitive control layout includes Drive, Tone, and Volume knobs that interact naturally, allowing you to sculpt everything from vintage rock grit to modern high-gain textures. The Disturbator II particularly shines when stacked with other pedals or used to push an already-cooking amp, where its dynamic character and tonal richness truly come alive.

Perfect for: Blues rock, classic rock, southern rock, hard rock, and any player seeking expressive, touch-responsive distortion with vintage soul.
