Keeley Manis Overdrive

Seller's description

"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! Keeley pens the next chapter in the legend of the mythical Klone with several storied 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) we 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.  This feels incredible under your fingertips too.  Wouldn’t you like to hear a little more of the natural low end from your guitar?  The bass boost switch lowers the cutoff by exactly one octave and increases the output by +3dB.  It’s the perfect low end recovery and push for single coil guitars.  True Bypass or Buffered Silent Switching on the fly.  The Manis is built like a tank and is the first klone you can power with 18 volts. The Manis is a Hard Clipping ‘clean boost’ that has been updated and modernized with our power supply improvements as well as other mind bending fixes to the inherent tonal problems of the original circuit." Specs: The Manis is Hard Clipping “clean boost” using Russian transistors as germanium diodes   Ge-Trans Switch – Diodes or Transistors – Huge difference in feel with increased saturation and tube like compression  The Bass+ Switch –  Lowers the frequency response by one octave and then pushes 3dB harder True-Bypass or Buffered Bypass/silent Switching – Whichever works and sounds best in your rig.
