MI Audio Crunch Box V.3
The Crunch Box Distortion is MI Audio's take on high gain British amp distortion. The history of the Crunch Box actually goes back a few years. They came up with the design after careful study of the way that modern British style amps get their overdrive. They found that there was a very big concentration of the frequency information in the midrange. So they started to experiment with different prototype ideas, until they settled on a design in late 2003. Since then, various prototypes were sent out for serious road testing, and the final design was released in early 2006. The realisation of the Crunch Box meant that MI Audio achieved their goal of creating a pedal, which captures the huge crunch of a Marshall on steroids. Within 2 years the Crunch Box has become one of our most popular pedals and 1 of the fastest selling boutique distortion pedals in the world.
High Gain British Distortion at its best!
