Inspired by the vintage Bell and Howell 385 Filmosound projector that guitarists have modified and used as guitar amps, Walrus has created a dynamicand responsive overdrive modeled after the projector's tone.

The 385 was developed to have the same simple but effective tone control as it’s older relative, but unlike the projector, the 385 breaks up the singletone control and integrates separate, boost and cut bass and treble, allowing the player to get more creative with mid-frequency scoops and bumpsallowingfor a much wider array of tones to be achieved.

The pedal is internally running at 18v, which helps us nail the same dynamic feel of the amp in a stomp box. This means it is extremely sensitive tohow hard you dig in – just like the amp.

Updated for 2023, The 385 MKII has received the following features:

• An A/B switch has been added giving the pedal two separate sets of volume and gain. Use it like a preset to change the volume and/or gain forspecific parts!
• The 385+ Switch adds an additional gain stage at the front of the pedal for thick, saturated overdrive with more sustain.
• Soft touch, relay true-bypass switch
• Top mount in/out jacks
