Walrus Audio Iron Horse LM308 Distortion V2 Pedal

This is a discontinued V2 pedal that has been replaced by the V3. The main difference is that the clipping on the V2 is a three position toggle, where the V3 is a variable blend of Silicon to LED. It's available at a special savings while the last.

The Walrus Iron Horse V2 pedal uses the same LM308 chip as the legendary R*T pedal for outstanding crunch and articulation that make it an instant classic. But everything can be improved upon, and the Iron Horse provides three different clipping modes to vary the amount of compression (silicon or LED) or no compression at all for full throttle uncompressed gain. Even the more compressed setting it never sounds squashed or lacking dynamics, just a little smoother or more linear. Plus characteristic of the LM308 is that the Iron Horse cleans up nicely as you roll down the guitar volume. One of our favorites in the shop, the Iron Horse is a go-to pedal for anything from rock to roots to prog.


In the words of Walrus Audio:

The Iron Horse V2 is a return to the classic distortion: thick, punchy, riffy and rowdy. The true bypass, high gain behemoth has been updated to help steer the stallion or let the reins loose for full on distorted onslaught. Dial back the gain and it can be used as a thick, warm overdrive. The Iron Horse has three distortion modes operated by a toggle switch that changes between different clipping diodes providing more versatility in shaping the tone of the distortion. Left will give some compression. Right will give you a higher amount of compression and middle will give you a wide open, non compressed signal.

 The Iron Horse V2 updates are as follows:

- Updated the Level control so that it is easier to dial in unity gain. 
- Updated the Tone control to allow more treble to be dialed in if desired. 
- Updated Distortion control to smooth out the range of distortion making it easier to dial in lower gain tones.

 9V DC 10mA – 4.77 x 2.9 x 2.3 inches
