FLATTLEY REVOLUTION DYNAMIC OVERDRIVE

Many new pedals are taking a classic and, rather than imitating it, are adding an extra twist. Such is the Flattley Revolution, which we’d characterise as a deft evolution of a certain green Ibanez pedal, injecting amp-like nuance and tonal variation to the original’s flattering mid-hump style. The key control is a threeway micro switch to select between op-amp, silicon diode or LED clipping for varying degrees of aggression and compression in the pedal’s driven voice, while its base voice is chunky, detailed and as hot as you’d ever need for classic rock and more. Cool touches, such as an illuminated ring beneath the footswitch to show the pedal is engaged, only make this neo-’Screamer more attractive.
