overdrive CATALINBREAD SILVER KISS MK2 2007 REISSUE

The Silver Kiss MK2 is engineered to give you three effects in one: clean boost, medium-gain OD and a powerful three-band EQ. After finding one tucked away in storage, we decided to give new players a crack at trying out our original flagship overdrive. Voiced to be a glassy drive with superior breakup and natural-sounding note decay, the Silver Kiss’s front end features a tastefully-voiced op-amp drive engine with just the right amount of gentle clipping to make harmonics really pop. Dialing back the gain control removes all semblance of crunch for a whistle-clean boost with a robust EQ section backing it. Setting each EQ band to noon also removes them from the circuit for a transparent boost-OD combo. The active EQ is an extremely powerful one with much more boost available on all three bands and some supreme interactivity to conjure up some real wool or some thinned-out tones that can be supplemented with another pedal further down the line. Controls – Treb: Level of the treble shelving filter. – Vol: Makes more loud! – Mid: Level of the midrange. – Bass: Level of the bass shelving filter. – Gain: Amount of pre-EQ gain on tap.
