Category: Distortion and Overdrive
Class:
Description Brand: Coron Country/Region of Manufacture: Japan
This is a collection of 12 vintage and super-rare Coron effects pedals. They were Made in Japan in the 1970s, and share many similarities with early MXR models (and are clearly inspired by the American brand). These pedals were designed and manufactured in the golden age of the Japanese "Lawsuit Era" - of which most companies involved were either shut down or acquired by their plaintiffs. Although we're unsure if Coron was ever sued for these - the jury is still out on whether they should have been: they were really, really good. This is a rare opportunity to grab a dozen of Coron's finest together. This bundle includes:Coron Octaver (Blue) - Killer octave-down with blend control.Coron Octaver (Orange) - Same as above, slightly different tone and box paint variance!Coron Distortion 15 - Slightly edgier than a Dist +
Coron Over Drive - Awesome, AA battery powered grit-inducerCoron Compressor 20 - Punchy, rich opto compressor a la Dyna2x Coron Line Booster - Clean boost!Coron Cross Over 80 - Super cool, flanger-like filtered sound with adjustable speedCoron Cross Over 85 - Excellent touch-sensitive auto-wah / filterCoron Space Machine 70 - Galactic detuney chorus vibrato not unlike a CE-1!
Coron Phaser 50 - If its obvious inspiration had a wider sweep
Coron Phaser 55 - Another one with clear direction taken from the Phase 100
All these pedals are fully functional, built like tanks and are, as far as we can tell, all original. It has been known that, due to language barrier, the pots and labeling were often reversed on these pedals: a kinda silly and fun fact.. All (except the Over Drive) take 9V batteries, or could be easily modified to accept adapters if you so wish. They are all in excellent cosmetic condition, with some exhibiting only slight signs of wear and a few scratches here and there. This lot would make an excellent addition to any pedal-head's collection or would find itself very comfortable in a studio's gear locker. Grab them while you can!We have individual photos available of each pedal with more detailed shots.Please feel free to ask any questions or call for an in-hand description.Division Street Guitars914-737-2630
