The Warm Audio Centavo is an accurate recreation of the Klon Centaur Professional Overdrive. Whether you're after the fabled clean boost tones, transparent overdrive, or you want to push your dirty channels to true grit - the Centavo has all of the adored tones of the original legendary box. Alongside the original sounds expected from the vintage Centaur pedal, the Warm Audio Centavo also has a “MOD” switch on the back that when in the “up” position, engages the infamous “Jeff Beck Mod”, extending the low end response on the lower guitar strings by changing the value on the high pass filter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile we're pretty certain that the original diodes and transistors didn’t come from a magical land far far away, what we do know is that the Centavo will make fans of the original turn heads. Between the carefully buffered circuit design, custom-cast “champagne” gold   enclosure, and premium component selection, the Warm Audio Centavo is unapologetically authentic and delivers all aspects of the legendary Centar experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaithful Recreation Of The Original Klon Centaur Circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium Components Including TLO72 Op Amps, 1N34A Germanium diodes, Carbon Resistors, and Charge-Pump Voltage Regulator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuffered Bypass Operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain, Treble, and Output Controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMOD Switch on Rear For Extended Low-End Response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom-Cast “Champagne” Enclosure With Accurately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered Oxblood Knobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4\" Input (Inst) And Output (Amp) Jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowered By 9v Battery Or Standard 9v Dc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePedal Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Consumption: 40mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 5”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 6.75”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 2.25”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 2 Lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Warm Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40241326719111,"sku":"WA-CV","price":189.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/warm-audio-effects-and-pedals-overdrive-and-boost-warm-audio-centavo-professional-overdrive-pedal-wa-cv-29886510071943.jpg?v=1666292167"},{"product_id":"gibson-custom-shop-1961-les-paul-sg-standard-cme-spec-2136395","title":"Gibson Custom Shop 1961 Les Paul SG Standard \"CME Spec\" Antique Vintage Cherry VOS","description":"\u003cp\u003eCarrying on Orville Gibson’s historic pursuit of sonic excellence and aesthetic perfection, the Gibson Custom Shop combines traditional instrument-making techniques, innovative methods, and meticulous attention to detail to craft instruments worthy of its banner-era slogan, “Only a Gibson is Good Enough.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis instrument exclusively features woods hand-picked by CME’s expert guitar-buying team at the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, paired with one of our favorite finishes, plus a thoughtful combination of preferred fingerboards, neck profiles, pickups, and hardware, to make this customized Gibson guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1960s SG has been the favorite of some of the most iconic guitarists ever...Angus Young, Tony Iommi, Robby Krieger, George Harrison, Dickey Betts, Gary Rossington, and Eric Clapton, to name a few.
