Used, but good condition. Paint chips shown in photos. No original box included. From the manufacturer: Version 1 Original release in Fall 2019. Built in a BB-type enclosure and uses a NOS Germanium transistor in one of its gain stages.

It fills a special niche our family of drive pedals—a medium-gain device with the harmonic fullness and grind of a much higher-gain pedal, one that stands apart from both the brazen buzz of op amp distortion and the smooth breakup of JFET amp emulations alike. The Halberd’s character comes from over a dozen transistors working in harmony. It is familiar but unique, sitting somewhere between blown-up tweed and an overloaded console.
