About this listing
The Vemuram Butter Machine is a signature distortion pedal developed in collaboration with Michael Landau over more than two years of prototyping and real-world testing — at recording sessions and on tour in 2022 and 2023. The starting point was the Ibanez SD9, a pedal Landau used as his main high-gain drive for many years, with the goal of retaining its positive sonic qualities while eliminating the compression and high-end harshness he found limiting. The result is a wide-range distortion pedal that covers overdrive through to full distortion, with a natural, open feel and strong dynamic response to picking nuance and guitar volume.Two internal trim pots allow fine-tuning beyond the main controls: Sparkle is a peaking boost centred around 6kHz for dialling in high-end crunch, and Low-Mid adds bottom-end weight. Main controls are Volume, Gain, and Tone.In Michael Landau's words: "The final version has a perfectly open, natural feeling overdrive. It has gain and sustain for days… yet it stays clear, punchy and solid when you roll the volume back on your guitar. Vemuram has designed the best distortion pedal that I have ever played through."
