Mesa Boogie Throttle Box Distortion Pedal

NEW MESA/BOOGIE DRIVE PEDALS

MESA Pedals are built by the very same artisans that create the Award Winning Mark Five, the legendary Dual Rectifier and the new TransAtlantic TA-30. These pedals feature the same quality components, craftsmanship and inspiring performance as all of Mesa's custom amplifiers.

They’re all hand-built in Mesa's one and only shop in Petaluma California.... the Home of Tone! And every MESA pedal is backed by Mesa's legendary Customer Service and Mesa's long-standing commitment to musicians worldwide since 1969!

The THROTTLE BOX Distortion serves up all genres of ROCK with cut and aggression, but retains the signature warmth and organic sonic quality found in all our instruments. While its main strengths lie in higher-gain sounds, it’s also versatile and the lower gain options shouldn’t be overlooked for classic rock or howling blues. It also features a unique Mid Cut that scoops out midrange to produce the signature Boogie “V” EQ-curve that so many artists have employed in our amps to create the world’s heaviest guitar tones!
