Majik Box Begins Shipping the James “Munky” Shaffer Krush Distortion Signature Pedal

First signature pedal bearing the name of the iconoclastic guitarist of the band Korn

Torrance, CA – May 10, 2012 – Distilling the raw power, massive saturation and distinctive roar of Munky’s amp array into a tiny box, the Krush Distortion allows players to achieve the sound that conquered the world, plugged into any amp.

Munky’s request was for Majik Box to design a pedal  that could achieve two of his most celebrated tones – his signature heavy distortion sound and a lo fi sound that he often uses on intro sections and breakdowns in Korn’s music.  It was obvious that the request was met in spades, when Munky mounted the final prototype onto his pedal board and began using the pedal immediately on the band’s current U.S. tour.  The bonus is the incredible variability the pedal offers, allowing players to dial in signature sounds of their own.

The Krush Distortion features:

*Marked settings for two of Munky’s favorite sounds; heavy distortion and lo fi

*Four knobs, including a special Focus Control allowing a wide range of tonal possibilities

*Solid, brushed aluminum casing for light weight and road ready durability

*True Bypass operation

Designed and built at the Majik Box HQ in Torrance CA, the Krush Distortion is shipping now and can be purchased directly from the Majik Box online store at www.majikboxusa.com. Street Price: $229.99
