Musitronics Mu-Tron III

NOTE: We have an original 110/120v power supply for this which you can add on as an option via the box above. For UK buyers you can use it with batteries.

We've sold quite a few of these pedals and always have one in the studio; this one is in good working order and more than ready to continue oozing out filthy funk for the next 30-40 years.

An original Musitronics Mu-tron III for sale in full working order. This is a great analogue envelope filter (auto-wah) from the legendary Musitronics Corporation - built to withstand everything 70s musicians could throw at it - with a solid aluminium and steel case and chunky controls this vintage Made In USA pedal weighs in at over 1.5kg.

It sounds huge, fat and glorious - whatever you choose to put through it: guitar, bass or keys, it exhibits pure bona fide funk credentials. This is the real deal and is still (for us) "the biggest, baddest, funkiest envelope filter of all-time"

VOLTAGE: Will run on two 9v batteries or mains power. The original power supply option in this listing is US-only, and very uncommon. For use in UK/EU, the 9v batteries are the only option for powering the this pedal without the use of an external transformer.

Stevie Wonder, Bootsy Collins, Jerry Garcia...

Guitars, bass, Rhodes, synths, clavinet - all work well with this pedal - it instantly transports you back in time (sonically rather than literally of course) and works its analogue magic on digital sources breathing warmth and life into soft synths and samples. This pedal is what our re-amping box was made for...

These pedals have been reissued by Haz Laboratories, but though they look the part they're a pale imitation: the originals just have that thickness and sonic mojo that the reissue units lack. We've tried many reissue pedals against vintage originals and while some do a passable job, most fall short when compared to the real thing. In addition, original pedals should hold their value or offer a good return as an investment.
