The LVL by 1981 Inventions is a professional low-gain device that achieves overdrive gain ranges with a new and unique circuit. It features a combination of light clipping and op-amp push, giving the pedal a distinctive sound and gain structure. The pedal is designed to work great on bass, providing a full- range response. It also stacks well with other pedals, enhancing fuzz and overdrive effects. The pedal has a simple, 2-knob design with LVL and VOL controls, where LVL controls the gain and VOL adjusts the master output volume. The dimensions of the enclosure are 2.44” x 4.41” x 1.417” (62mm x 112 mm x 36mm), and it requires a 9VDC power supply with a 2.1 barrel connector (center negative). The pedal is designed and made in the USA.
