Description

What’s a Charlie Special?

Simply put, it’s a pre-amp, our signature limiter and a volume control. There are no markings of the controls or I/O, we feel anyone using this pedal will already know (or can figure it out very quickly) what it is and how it operates. For those that need a bit more information, there is a diagram in the manual.

Features genuine Neutrik jacks, true bypass (TPDT), precision carbon film resistors and reverse polarity protection in a compact, hardcoated case.
