Keeley Electronics Manis Overdrive

The Keeley Manis Overdrive uniquely combines both germanium NOS transistors and diodes for more compression and saturation plus a 3db bass-boost makes it unlike any other mythical Klone!

Keeley pens the next chapter in the legend of the mythical Klone with several storied upgrades and features. First up is the germanium diode switch. The essential germanium diodes are at the heart of the myth. By substituting essential germanium diodes with germanium transistors (circa Cold War era) we increase the compression and saturation of the tone. The Manis can give you a softer attack that sounds more like a tube amp. Less ice-pick, more tube amp. This feels incredible under your fingertips too. Wouldnt you like to hear a little more of the natural low end from your guitar? The bass boost switch lowers the cutoff by exactly one octave and increases the output by +3dB. Its the perfect low end recovery and push for single coil guitars. True Bypass or Buffered Silent Switching on the fly. The Manis is built like a tank and is the first klone you can power with 18 volts. The Manis is a Hard Clipping clean boost that has been updated and modernized with our power supply improvements as well as other mind bending fixes to the inherent tonal problems of the original circuit.

Buffered Bypass or True Bypass

The Keeley Manis Overdrive allows you to quickly switch between either mode. Having a great buffer will make your rig sound strong and clear even when the pedal is off. Buffered switching prevents the pops and clicks of true-bypass switching. If you want to turn on true-bypass, simply press and hold the foot switch for two seconds. Holding the switch for two seconds toggle between modes. True Bypass is great if a buffer might affect the tone of a vintage pedal. Enjoy truly silent switching and a better sounding rig with Keeleys buffered switching mode.
