Dunlop M-193 User Manual

The initials MXR are synonymous with the effects pedal
innovations that have shaped the tone of modern electric guitar.
Since the 1970’s, MXR has produced the best stomp boxes
available; now comes the inspired M193 GT-OD. Starting with its
proprietary circuit design that delivers rich harmonic content, the
GT-OD carries on the MXR tradition of tough, rugged and tonally
tasty stomp boxes. With its die cast chassis, robust stomp switch
and carefully selected components the GT-OD is truly a modern
day classic.

M193

overdrive

Built from the ground up with the best available components, the M193
GT-OD Overdrive pedal creates smooth, warm, and classic overdrive

without excess noise or tone coloring. The simple controls make it easy
to dial in a great tone quickly— from crunchy rhythm tone with chord
clarity—to sparkly and harmonic-rich lead tones with tons of sustain.
You won’t find an overdrive that is more organic, responsive or open
sounding.

DESCRIPTION

• The M193 GT-OD is a traditional overdrive that provides powerful,
cutting, transparent overdrive tone with great definition.

• A single tone control makes sound shaping simple. The output
and gain controls provide ultimate control for any tone at
any volume.

• Adds sustain and gain without coloring your guitar or
amp’s tone.

• Place in front of an overdriven amp for screaming lead tones.

• Indestructible die-cast housing.
