Rebel Red Distortion

The One Control Rebel Red Distortion is a versatile distortion pedal designed to deliver the sought-after tones reminiscent of older 70s and 80s UK-based tube amps. The RRD4K (four knob) model features an innovative “Drive” control, allowing players to effectively manage the pre-gain staging within the pedal, similar to adding an extra stage of tube preamp in amp modifications. The treble control has been revoiced to allow most frequencies through while sculpting the upper range to mate with various tube and solid-state amplifiers.

The Rebel Red Distortion offers a bit darker tone with softer treble and more low mids, providing a classic Plexi/JMP sound with smaller combo amps and solid-state amps. It features Volume, Gain, and Tone controls, allowing users to adjust the total output level, amount of distortion effect, and critical treble frequency for use with a wide variety of amplifiers.

The pedal is suitable for use with any amplifiers or pickups, with best results achieved with high-output pickups such as humbuckers for contemporary high-gain riffs where legato playing is necessary. The Rebel Red Distortion complements any tone, especially a bright sounding tone, and demonstrates its power at higher volumes while still being able to create authentic high-gain sounds at an acceptable stage volume.

The Rebel Red Distortion is a custom recreation of the famous and sought-after BJFe Dyna Red Distortion, offering a modern and thick sound while maintaining exquisite timbre characteristics. It is designed to provide a versatile range of distortion, from a ragged tube overdrive to raging hard rock and metal dynamics, making it a highly versatile and controllable pedal for guitarists seeking classic and modern distortion tones.
