BLAMMO! Electronics Blues Blaster Pedal
The Blues Blaster, released in '91, is a classic based on the Marshall Blues Breaker amplifier and is named after it. The amplifier got its name from Eric Clapton's use of the prototype version when he joined John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers to record with it at an unreasonably loud volume. The pedal is known for its warm and soft distortion character that isn't particularly aggressive. It wasn't very popular at first but gained recognition after another blues musician with the initials J.M. started using it and spreading the word about it.
BLAMMO! Electronics Blues Blaster Pedal Review
The BLAMMO! version gives users access to that vintage low-gain bell-like tone of the original circuit in STOCK mode plus a higher gain distortion sound that can feedback n' crunch like a blown-out Marshall when set on MOD mode. Designed to run the dirty boost to mid-gain overdrive to distortion gamut well and possibly help simplify complicated pedalboard setups. We also updated the footswitch to a no-click relay-based true bypass system that's either momentary or latching (tap or press and release), beefed up the power filtering, added polarity protection, and housed it in a smaller, more pedalboard-friendly enclosure with top-mounted jacks. A discreet buffer has also been added at the circuit's end to ensure it stacks well / plays nicely with other pedals.
