Takes its name from King Magnus I, who ruled Denmark nearly a
thousand years ago. The name means “great”—and when you plug your guitar
into this board, you’ll hear its greatness from the first note you
play.
Think of Magnus as a royal family of 5 classic T-Rex pedals—each with its own noble lineage. The Overdrive, Distortion, Delay, Reverb and Boost effects are all based on T-Rex classics used by the world’s best-known guitarists. And they all deliver the legendary vintage tone and uncomplicated operation T-Rex pedals are famous for.
When you’re onstage or in the studio, you can use your Magnus in
“Live” mode, switching individual effects on and off and adjusting them
while you play. But you can also switch to “Preset” mode, which lets you
program up to 10 preset combinations of your different Magnus effects.
That way, you can quickly call up whole sonic realms on the fly, without
having to deal with individual pedals.
Let’s be honest: Not even a T-Rex effect is going to sound great if your guitar’s out of tune. That’s why Magnus comes with a built-in tuner that lets you silently tune before you start playing and keep you guitar in tune throughout the gig, without having to fiddle with external tuning devices.
The built in tuner is one more reason why we believe the T-Rex
Magnus will quickly be crowned king of multi-effect boards—and the one
indispensable tool for your guitar setup.
