A little bit above the norm … Every home should have one!

They’re some of the most versatile, best-sounding, new pedal releases I’ve tried in a long time.

A distortion that can scream with tons of gain yet works beautifully as a smooth overdrive too.

It was a huge surprise to hear such an organic, dynamic, and "real" distortion pedal when I put it on my clean channel. Most distortion pedals sound like a "pedal" when on a clean channel, but that doesn't happen with the Silver Spurs. It really sounds like a good, real, overdriven channel from a tube amp

Damping

Dialling in the Damping control steadily removes very low-end frequencies without taking away the body of your tone. It moves you from flubby, old-school amp feel to a tighter, more modern response, and because it sits before the gain stage, it directly shapes the character of the drive.

Headroom

Modelled on the difference between high- and low-wattage amps, the Headroom control works as a broad character shift. Turn it left for a darker, lower-gain, more compressed feel, or right for a brighter, more open tone with more gain.

Presence

While the Damping control shapes the low lows, Presence handles the high highs. Often described as that paper-on-paper edge, it lets you add or tame top-end bite, perfect for brightening dark amps or smoothing out overly sharp ones.
