PRESS RELEASE
Carl Martin Ships Crush Zone, Red Repeat, And Surf Trem Vintage Series Effects Pedals
January 12, 2006
Carl Martin is shipping the Vintage Series, a new line of 9V guitar effects in a new, different design. The Vintage Series employs the Carl Martin philosophy of using the best components possible at a very affordable price.
Crush Zone
A vintage style, high-gain/distortion pedal using the same high quality components as its Carl Martin cousins, the Crush Zone provides everything from a slight edge to your tone, to mind-blowing distortion. Adjust the cool chicken-head knobs for level and distortion, and then refine your sound using the tone control. Crush Zone is housed in heavy die cast case with 9 volt battery compartment and heavy-duty bypass switching.
Surf Trem
Remember the great tremolo tones of the 50's and 60's? The 'Surf Trem' gets its trem circuit from the CM Tremovibe. With just a 'speed' and 'depth' control (just like our old tube amp) those classic tones are easy to achieve. The retro heavy diecast case with 9 volt battery compartment, cool colour and heavy duty bypass switch, make the 'Surf Trem' a must have in every pedal box.
Red Repeat
Based on the infamous Carl Martin Delayla, the 'Red Repeat' provides an affordable 600 milliseconds of delay as well as a simply controlled echo. Add just a touch of delay to thicken your sound, or push the echo circuit past 12o'clock where the unit begins to self-oscillate, just like an old analog delay. Great vintage style and colour in a heavy diecast, 9 volt pedal with heavy duty bypass switching.
