The History"A what?", I hear you say... Well theis an obscure one all right. It's a resonant low pass filter/distortion pedal from the mid-70s, made for Japanese drum manufacturing giants, who sold these curiosities via their own name and also under thebrand (which seems to have been reserved for Pearl's more guitar oriented products).An almost completely forgotten effect, it was pushed onto the pedal geek radar when one showed up on one of Kevin Shields' ridiculously voluminous pedal boards during their reunion shows a couple of years back. Interesting indeed...The Warpprovides a handy degree of control over the filter resonance in a unique way you've never really witnessed before.The SoundOn its own, the Vorg provides a weird and wicked "cocked wah" EQ boost. Turn up the bias/drive knob and it'll add an unhealthy dollop of distortion on the side. The real fun, however, begins when stacked with other pedals. Put it after a Muff (the North Green Russian is perfect here) and the Keven Shields association quickly makes more sense as you head far into blown out MBV territory...
Among the rarest of all pedals, the WARP is well worth owning.  Especially if you are an explorer or tones-- this is a dream of an explorere-- deep space distorted black hole gamma ray stuff.  THis pedal is 100% original and oerates PERFECTLY.  Collector Quality.
