Flattley Pedals has officially launched the Reaper Dual Mode Distortion Anniversary Edition, a specialized stompbox marking the manufacturer’s 10th year in business. According to Premier Guitar, this new product revisits the company’s original overdrive design but features a different approach intended to deliver more aggressive tones for performing guitarists.
The source reports that the pedal utilizes a three-way toggle switch to select between hard clipping, soft clipping, and a clean boost mode capable of driving amplifier preamps into saturation. Premier Guitar notes that the circuit incorporates vintage glass envelope germanium diodes for hard clipping and asymmetric LED-silicon pairing for expanded tonal variety. The unit also features a purple halo light ring to reduce stage glare and an enlarged aluminum footswitch for easier activation during live sets.
Premier Guitar states that all units are hand-wired in the United Kingdom using high-quality components and finished in the company’s paint shop as part of the Platinum Range. The publication lists the street price at $319 for the US market. This release adds a premium, limited-edition option to the current fretted accessories landscape, offering a distinct product targeting collectors and professional players seeking specific analog voicings.
