Many tone freaks and pedal-board fetishists told EHX boss Mike Mathews about a pedal that would eventually cause shock-waves in the industry and were only available at exorbitant high prices. They of course were talking about the "Klon Centaur", which today is considered by many to be the most influential effect pedal ever; inspiring the creation of countless Klon Centaur clones.

As part of the business philosophy of Electro Harmonix to offer struggling musicians inexpensive yet top-quality products, Mathews took on the challenge to develop a worthy clone at a fraction of the cost. The Soul Food delivers transparent overdrive with good attack. The integrated circuitry creates a ton of headroom and improves tone definition.

The best part however, is that you don’t have to be a Rock Star to own one of these pedals.
