Cusack Music Project 34 Pre/Drive

The Project 34 just happens to be the atomic number of selenium, and at the heart of this pedal is a selenium rectifier. Selenium rectifiers are an old technology that goes back to pre-germanium times, and were first introduced in the early 1930's. They were last used in the guitar world as rectifiers in older amps such as the 1950's tweeds. Later on in the 1960's they were phased out as the industry turned to modern solid state silicon instead of selenium and tube rectifiers. The Project 34 is the kind of pedal that can't be quickly categorized. It can be used for a boost, pre-amp, a bit of a compression, or a light overdrive. But whatever you decide it is best at, it will always be flavored by the unique character of the selenium rectifier. You may hear characteristics more akin to a small tube amp,  rather than diode and transistor fizzle fade. A unique pedal complete with a beautiful Malbec Red Metallic powder coat (looks way better in person). Pick one up while you can, once you find how the P-34 works for your tone you'll likely never want to be without one!
