SNAKE OIL The Very Thing

Snake Oil Fine Instruments are purveyors of only the purest, homegrown tonal tweaking tools on the market. Fresh from the creative minds at Chapman Guitars, these rather luxurious bits of kit are made in the UK to the finest specifications. This particular specimen, The Very Thing, is a refined boost pedal that reportedly cures all bad tone. Use it to push the front of your valve amp, or give it a stomp to propel your lead playing to new sonic heights!

The Very Thing sounds great out the box - simple as that. Despite this, they've provided you with three simple controls: gain, tone and volume. Tweak the gain to add grit to your boosted tone, ranging from subtle purring to a firm bark in no time. Tone provides you with just amount of control over the shape of your sound. Roll it off and you'll get a warm low-end emphasis, crank it and you'll get heaps of fizzy goodness. Volume does exactly what you think it does.

Snake Oil pedals are designed and built in the UK. Built to withstand the toughest of gigging schedules, they also look the part. An embossed metal enclosure and design would look just as good in a trophy cabinet as it would on your battle-scarred pedalboard.
