About this product

Product Information

Make your guitar shriek and squeal with the Maxon SD-9 Sonic Distortion guitar effect pedal. Possessed of the classic 80s vibe that dominated the sound of many hair bands and glam rock groups, the SD9 helps you find the sweet spot between tube amp and transistor solid state amp characteristics. Based on the original pedal that was produced in the 80s, this spectacular reissue features enhancements that provide better tone control, lengthy sustains, and a more responsive interface.These pedals are remarkably close to the originals in terms of their overall design. The chassis is assembled in the vintage stompbox style and made of strong zinc alloy that holds up to intense sessions night after night. It is compact and may be chained with other guitar effects in your gear collection. The portability of the pedal is well-suited to double duty on the stage and in the studio, and it performs great when used with home recording software. It requires a single 9V battery or compatible 9V power supply for operation.As durable as the SD-9 is, its functionality and tone is what made it a favorite of many guitarists. The input signal is routed through a high-pass filter for clarity without that unwanted hum or noise that corrupts your tones. From there, the signal proceeds to a transistor that functions as high input/low input impedance. Dual diodes to ground are what supply the distinctive crunch of this distortion pedal.This unit features a wide operation range, meaning that you use the Hi and Low knobs to dish out dark, murky low tones and shattering high frequencies. Produce everything from mid-gain overdrive to fuzz with adjustments to each knob. This simplicity of operation is why many novice guitar players choose these distortion pedals. As you learn the ins and outs of tone sculpting, the sounds you are able to produce fatten up your power chords and help you shred those solos. No matter which combination of guitars and amps you have, be it an Ibanez with a Marshall or a Fender with a Vox, this great distortion effects pedal tips from bass to midrange to treble with clarity and precision. There are no dropouts and no mud, just pure 80s sound. Rather than modifying the unique tonality of your guitars and their pickups, the distortion provided by a Maxon unit uses true bypass switching and premium components to provide articulate notes and eliminate the super-compressed sounds that causes distinction to disappear.When you turn up the gain, get ready to hear some truly dirty, crunching overdrive with up to 55 decibels of boost. The pedal's ability to function well with either humbuckers or single coil-type pickups is just one reason why guitarists like Scott Henderson enjoy playing with this Maxon. In addition, this pedal blends nicely with other effects on your board.

    Smooth lead tones for days

    Best distortion pedal ever? Possibly. It’s very hot and aggressive, the typical settings are output on full, tone between 0 and maybe 1 and distortion between 11 o’clock and 1 o’clock. Tone above that becomes brutal, haven’t played around with that, maybe a world of high-gain madness in there. Set as suggested gives you smooth, articulate lead tone, familiar sounding being as the top studio players use it. I love mine!

  • SD 9 MAXON

    I'd been playing trough quite a few overdrive and distortion pedals in the past 20 years. I can't name them and don't want to either. The SD9 just sounds the best for me playing kind of fusion and blues music. It's got top and bottom end, versatile enough ,I mean goes from overdrive to real distortion. If I really want to drive it I add an EP booster to it. And one more thing if it's good enough for Mr Scott Henderson or my old teacher Mr John Bush then it should be good enough to me as well. Shouldn't it ?

  • Maxon SD-9 Sonic Distortion

    I love the versatility of this pedal. It sound great as an overdrive with a little bit of hair on it, and it sounds amazing with heavy drive tones. The True-bypass lets me put it in front of my fuzz without any sonic issues. If I had the pedalboard real estate, I would consider using two of them. If my pedal board ever was stolen, this is the first pedal that I'd replace. Bill Sig

  • Looking to the gods

    I bought this pedal because Michael Landau and Scotty Henderson both use it. I am very satisfied with its sound and versatility. It will be a main stay on my pedal board for sure
