Keeley Electronics Manis Overdrive

The Keeley Manis Overdrive uniquely combines both germanium NOS transistors and diodes for more compression and saturation plus a 3db bass-boost makes it unlike any other mythical Klone.

Added upgrades and features: First up is the germanium diode switch. The essential germanium diodes are at the heart of the myth. By substituting essential germanium diodes with germanium transistors (circa Cold War era) Keeley increase the compression and saturation of the tone. The Manis can give you a softer attack that sounds more like a tube amp. Less ice-pick, more tube amp. Wouldnt you like to hear a little more of the natural low end from your guitar?
