Third Man Hardware has announced the release of the Plasma Coil, a special version of the Plasma pedal created by Gamechanger Audio and Third Man Records.

The Plasma Coil utilizes Gamechanger’s High Voltage Distortion technology, which, according to the company, expresses an audio signal as a series of electrical discharges and amplifies audio signals to 3500 volts.

Additionally, the original pedal’s Blend control has been removed, making the new version “100% PLASMA” all the time.
