Carl Martin Plexiranger is a 3-in-1 pedal with a clean and a treble boost and a very nice 60s and 70s rock overdrive.
When we look back to the glory days of rock guitar (mid 60’s to mid 70’s), some of the most popular amplifier set-ups were British Marshalls and Vox’s….often with multi-speaker cabinets. Players like Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, Brian May etc, carved their signature sounds on stage and in the studio with these rigs, and in order to deal with the over-powering bottom end, they made use of ‘The Treble Booster’.
Treble Boosters add top end or higher frequencies to the guitar tone, and depending on how the amp is set up, some much desired overdrive. As much as companies like Dallas (Rangemaster) and Hornby Skewes (Treble Booster) were solving a bottom-end problem, they had also created a new sound palette! Carl decided it was time to re-introduce this sound with the PlexiRanger! And leave it to Carl to add a gain channel along with the boost channel for a one-of -a-kind FX pedal!
With this pedal you can use the Boost- and Drive-channel in series or independently from each other. Besides the usual knobs the pedal also has an additional low-cut option on the Boost-channel with 3 switchable settings.
Carl Martin is produced by East Sound Research and was founded in 1990 as a professional PA sound rental company. Shortly after, they began producing custom made audio equipment.
Demanding professionals
Their goal from the very beginning was to develop and produce products for the demanding professional musician, with superior sound quality and features not seen in other guitar effect pedals. As a result, the Hot Drive’n Boost, was introduced in 1993.
High quality standard
Due to extensive knowledge of the professional music industry, and contacts with a wide range of demanding musicians, Carl Martin have maintained a very high quality standard and has a range of 44 high quality guitar and bass effect pedals, and more to come in the future. In 2005 they released the first handmade, point-to-point tube amplifier... the Custom Shop 50. Each year they strive to improve their existing pedals and they look for new products to offer pros and aspiring musicians
