Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret (Pre-Owned)

Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret

A modern classic among amp-in-a-box pedals, the Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret faithfully recreates the sound and feel of a cranked late-'60s and early-'70s Marshall Plexi. Designed to be the foundation of your pedalboard, it transforms almost any clean amplifier into a roaring British stack, delivering everything from edge-of-breakup crunch to rich classic rock overdrive with remarkable touch sensitivity.

Featuring a responsive gain structure and a powerful three-band EQ, the Dirty Little Secret cleans up beautifully with your guitar's volume control just like a vintage Marshall. An internal switch lets you choose between Super Lead and Super Bass voicings, while an internal Presence trimmer allows further fine-tuning to suit your guitar and amplifier. Whether used as an always-on preamp or a standalone overdrive, it's one of the most convincing Marshall-style pedals available.
