The Mesa Throttle Box is a high gain / distortion pedal from the people that invented the concept! 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 of Mesa's 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 their amps to create the world's heaviest guitar tones!
