Krank Krankshaft Overdrive Pedal
June 27th, 2007
In addition to the release of their new micro stack, Krank has also released a new overdrive pedal. From the Krank website Krank says:
Designed for those guitarists who like to add that extra gain to their amps or simply want a classic overdriven tone for their clean channel, the Krankshaft delivers. Featuring a heavy-duty chassis and true bypass circuitry, the Krankshaft can help you achieve screaming leads or smooth country rock-blues tones.
I cant say that I see anything specifically special about this pedal, but the Krank fanboys out there will probably love it. The only feature information I could find was that it has true bypass and a heavy duty chassis. It’s a simple pedal that has only three controls including output, tone, and gain. There is a true bypass switch and thats about it.
Online retailers are listing the unit at $129USD and it should be available for purchase by tomorrow.

Very transparent and crisp. Buckets of gain.
“Fanboy” What does that have to do with anything?? Why don’t you try one? What kind of review takes a shot at a company and their customers, and doesn’t even try the product in question? Your review is worthless and you have no credibility.
If you tried it and didn’t like it, that’s one thing. But you obviously have prejudice against Krank, and it shows your lack of objectivity.
BTW - This pedal blows away a Maxon OD808 and boosts tube amps very nicely. Sounds better than boutique preamps and screamers costing twice as much.

Well actually, it wasn’t really a review, I was just an announcement of Krank’s new pedal.
I did not mean to use the term Fanboy in a negative way and I didn’t go into any detail on the product because at that time I couldn’t find much information. I’m glad you enjoy the pedal and I’m sure future visitors to this page will benefit from your comments on it.
Thanks Jeff
