Maxon D&S Distortion/Sustainer Guitar Effect

Originally released in 1974, the D&S Distortion & Sustainer creates the same silky, compressed fuzz that those vintage Muffs are famous for. Yet where Muffs have a tendency to “blanket” your original guitar tone, the D&S retains more of the original sound and feel of your instrument and amp.
By using hand-selected low-noise transistors, the D&S actually offers more gain than a vintage Black & Red, yet with a lower noise floor. That’s right – MORE distortion with LESS noise.
The smooth EQ sweep of the D&S Tone control covers a frequency range that is narrower yet more useful than the Pi’s – This tighter, more focused EQ provides superior note definition, even when playing chords.
The combination of these elements gives the D&S the ability to produce huge amounts of distortion with minimal alteration to your guitar’s tone.
One big wall of raw, grungy nastiness in a box – the D&S takes the sound of the greatest vintage Muff and turns it up to 11.

Тype: Distortion

Distortion is an effect that heavily alters the shape of the audio signal, producing a rich, aggressive, and saturated tone. It is used to achieve an intense sound with strong harmonic content and long sustain. Distortion is a key element in rock, metal, and alternative music, giving the guitar sound power, sharpness, and character.

True Bypass: Yes

It has a true bypass function, which ensures that when the effects are turned off, the signal passes directly through the unit without influence or degradation.

Battery Operation: Yes

Battery power provides flexibility and mobility. This feature allows you to use the device anywhere, even in places where an electrical outlet is not available. Battery power is ideal for situations that require portability and independence from the grid, whether you're outdoors, on the road, or in a location with limited access to electricity.
