Bogner Ecstasy Red

The Bogner Ecstasy Red distortion pedal is based on the Red channel of the Bogner XTC Ecstasy guitar head amps, and can be selected via the Structure Mode Switch: the Ecstasy Classic 100, Ecstasy 101, and the 20th Anniversary Ecstasy heads. The Bogner Ecstasy pedal has a switchable and adjustable boost, with the mini-controller for gain and volume boost. Like the Bogner amp head, the pedal offers many possibilities. There are three modes available Tight, Mellow and Full, with a Pre EQ with Normal, Bright 1 and Bright 2 modes, and the Variac mode.

The Bogner Ecstasy Red pedal featurees five discrete Class A gain stages and no op-amps or diode clipping, the circuitry found in the Ecstasy amplifier’s Red Channel. This design provides clarity, touch sensitivity and note separation never before achieved in overdrive pedals.

• Boost function with volume and gain controls
• Master Controls: Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass and Volume
• Variac On/Off switch: adds dropped voltage dynamic compression
• Mode Switch: Tight, Mellow and Full, shapes the general EQ curve and gain levels
• Pre-EQ Switch: B1, N and B2 settings control openness and presence of higher range harmonics
• Structure Switch: 100, 101 and 20th Anniversary settings offer EQ shifts and gain structures from various eras and models of Ecstasy amplifiers
• Jacks: input, output and remote
  Remote jack allows control of the on/off and boost functions via a remote switching unit
• Low Battery Indicator: LEDs blink when battery voltage drops below critical threshold
• Premium components include: Double-sided, gold-plated circuit boards, German WIMA capacitors, Japanese Nichicon capacitors and gold-plated relays, Carling switches
• True bypass
