Tube Howler
The SMB Tube Howler is a delightfully unhinged overdrive pedal that summons the raw, unrefined spirit of classic rock. This beast of a pedal isn't interested in subtlety - it's all about cranking up the gain and letting your guitar roar with unbridled ferocity. At the heart of the Tube Howler lies a real vacuum tube, painstakingly integrated to deliver that unmistakable tube-driven distortion. Crank the gain knob and feel the pedal come alive, unleashing a snarling, harmonically-rich distortion that will have your amp begging for mercy. The midrange control allows you to shape the growl, dialing in just the right amount of midrange punch to cut through the mix. But the Tube Howler isn't just about brute force. Flip the bright switch and you'll uncover a surprisingly nuanced side to this pedal, adding shimmering high-end sparkle and clarity to your tone. It's the perfect tool for those scorching lead lines or searing rhythm parts that demand attention. Rumor has it that the late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan was a devotee of the Tube Howler, using it to conjure his legendary tone. While we can't confirm that, we do know that this pedal has the power to transform your guitar into a howling, snarling beast - perfect for unleashing your inner rock god.
