www.ProGuitarShop.com-The Seymour Duncan Lava Box was designed to react more like a tube amplifier than an actual distortion pedal. The SFX-05 has exceptional dynamics and harmonic response as well as superior string separation and volume knob response. It truly is like plugging into an overdriven amp! The Lava Box has a large amount of gain for super saturated fun and also a large amount of volume boost so it can double as a clean boost pedal as well. The most unique feature of the Lava Box distortion pedal is the 6 position Rumble selector. This is a bass roll-off contol with cutoff frequencies at: 620Hz, 520Hz, 330Hz, 300Hz, 210Hz, and 160Hz.

The first thing you will notice about the Seymour Duncan SFX-05 is the warmth. It sounds like a great tube amp being pushed too hard. The dynamics are responsive and the low end is tight. Pick lightly and it cleans up, pick hard and it really goes through the roof. The Rumble selector lets you tailor the Lava Box to your guitar. It makes single coils thunderous and humbuckers lean with midrange bliss. Truly a unique pedal the Seymour Duncan SFX05 Lava Box distortion / overdrive pedal is a monster pedal for a monster sound.

  • Cool pedal

  • @YouAreTodays I only liked the 1st position on the rumble switch...oh well...stick with the pups Seymour.

  • This sounds middy compared to the tweak fuzz...more crunchy. I think the tweakfuzz sounds actually more modern with a better variety of tones. This pedal almost sounds more seventies to me then the tweak fuzz, which is funny since the tweak fuzz is a fuzz pedal. The harmonics in the tweakfuzz sound a little more rich too.

  • @MrTheafterschoolshow I think your regurgitating what other people have said, transparent is hardly the word to use :S

  • At 7 you become Neil young...

  • @Olm9 I think its more that a lot of us want some real thick malty dist tones too, and the pedals that do that arent talked about much!

  • @MrTheafterschoolshow 'transparent' is a bad word regarding a guitar pedal now?!?

  • should i get this or tweak fuzz

  • Hi andy,

    Do you know any pedal that is good for mid boosted distortion?

    *80`s rock distortion like the rockman gear.

  • @R4ND0MREVIEW5 Better get a Tube King.
