The High-Rise is a new premium overdrive with massive frequency range and incredible touch sensitivity. High-Rise responds dynamically to your guitar’s tone settings and enhances them; it doesn’t mask them. The “Steel” circuit acts as a clean boost, bringing clear, organic overdrive to any amp or pedal combination. The “Concrete” circuit delivers additional gain, grit, and saturation. Together, the two circuits offer a myriad of tonal possibilities for a wide range of playing styles. Explore and achieve new tones from each side individually, or use them together. Get higher. The High-Rise was designed by Saul Koll and Portland effects maestro Jack Deville, with graphic design by Aaron Draplin. The knobs were custom designed by Saul and cast by Matt Haramis. It’s true-bypass and runs quietly on a 9VDC adapter or an optional internal 9V battery (run at 18VDC for added headroom and clarity). Every pedal is handmade one-by-one in Portland, Oregon.

Area - the art of reverberation.Area is an extremely versatile Multi Reverb with which you can obtain many reverberation environments. From short reverberations to huge spaces and celestial atmospheres, without clouding the Dry signal.Area is built on the base of powerful digital algorithms of our own creation, reproducing 4 different reverberation effects with an exceptional sound quality.The new Mastro Valvola Area MkII has all the same features of first Area multi reverb, with the addition of the innovative “Timed Bypass System”, designed by Mastro Valvola, to manage the reverb trails.When Trails mode is engaged and the effect is turned off, the pedal uses the “buffered bypass” and the reverb trails die of naturally. When the reverb trails are completely dead the pedal automatically changes the bypass system in true-bypass through the internal relay. Main features: 4 types of reverb: Reverb – Modulation – Shimmer 8th – Shimmer 8th + 5th 3 presets, easily managed with the preset button Damp control, to modify the emphasis on the reverberation frequencies dedicated Pre-Delay control, to easily modify the separation between the Dry and reverberated signal analogical Mix control, varying from 100% Dry to 100% Wet True-bypass with Timed Bypass System (TBS), to manage the reverb Trails completely analog Dry signal path Reverb types: REVERB: in this position, combining the Decay, Damp and Pre-Delay you will be able to obtain several kinds of reverberations: ROOM, PLATE, HALL. MOD: a double voice chorus modulation is added to the reverberation atmospheres, enriching the space of your environment. SHIM 8th: the tail of the reverberation is enriched by symphonic shimmers, tuned 2 octaves higher. SHIM 8th + 5th: the tail of the reverberation is enriched by symphonic shimmers, tuned on the higher octave and fifth.

Dual-purpose pedal: buffer and boost. The buffer offers optimum transparency and will solve any problems of loss of signal caused by long effect chains. It can help you produce those harmonics you thought you had lost and which your audience will think highly of. The clear boost will give you the boost you need for your solo parts and is also useful for saturating your amplifier channels. With close attention to the musician’s needs and requirements, we have chosen a specific range of frequency responses for this product, from medium-low to medium-high frequencies. You can choose from the “Tone” control:  the 12-hour position corresponds to “Flat” frequency. Features: - Completely analog circuit - True bypass switch - Power supply: 9-12 V/10 mA - Size (L x W x H): 9 cm x 11 cm x 6.6 cm

Hybrid fuzz/distortion pedal for guitars and bass guitars Versatility: A hybrid of germanium and silicon, combining the correct dynamics and well-defined granular effect typical of germanium with the grittiness and high sustain levels of silicon. An endless variety of resonances can be achieved by synchronizing choices of timbre with use of the filter and fuzzcontrols: from the resonances typical of valve distortions to the various fuzz timbres. Presence: Highly sought-after response frequency which, even in cases of extreme saturation, maintains a constant sound presence capable of holding its own in a mix with other instruments. Features: - Completely analog circuit - True bypass switch - Power supply: 9V/10 mA - Size (L x W x H): 9 cm x 11 cm x 6.6 cm

The Millibar is a studio-grade optical compressor, designed to achieve optimal compression control on both guitar and bass alike.Inspired by the performance of the Universal Audio 1176 and Teletronix LA2A, we have managed to recreate and implement their characteristics in the Millibar, in terms of both, transparent compression and "tone-full" qualities.Your instrument’s will sound full, rich with harmonics, sustain and without any loss of sound frequencies.The Millibar utilizes separate controls for compression and sustain, which allows the user to choose from a range of dynamic combinations, suitable for arpeggios, solos, grooves and many other styles and effects. In the MKII version we have added an attack control in order to give players maximum flexibility and control over  compression characteristics.

A laboratory in which to give full reign to your own creativity, as you experiment with the various “dimensions” of delay. This versatile delay is user-friendly and suitable for immediate use, but also ideal for users with a passion for sound research and experimentation, who will soon discover the unique moods which can be created by synchronizing the various controls. TimeLab is an analog/digital hybrid delay.  The dry signal and the repetition filter are controlled by the analog part of the circuit, while powerful, specially created digital algorithms are used to manage the repetitions, reproducing 4 original delay resonances, all of exceptionally high sound quality. Main features: a choice of 4 types of delay: Digital – Analog – Resonance – Modulation active analog filter, to give emphasis to the frequency response of the repetitions a selection of times, from 0 ms to 1000 ms Tap Tempo with subdivision between quarter, dotted eighth and eighth triplets control over delay time with soft pitch bending FILTER control: This is an active analog filter which allows you to give emphasis to the response frequency of the repetitions. It can be used with all types of delay to enrich the sound environment with unique and unusual colors. The control is flat in its central position. Moving it to the left allows you to add emphasis to the low frequency sounds by obscuring or muffling the repetitions, whereas moving it to the right will have the opposite effect, adding emphasis to the medium-high frequencies. Types of delay which can be selected with the TYPE control: DIGITAL: a transparent and well-defined delay. Used to create a sharp atmosphere and robotic effects. Time can be varied from 0 ms to 1000 ms. ANALOG: recreates the depth, warmth and nuance of the best analog delays. Soft and warm moods and deep, open distortions. Time can be varied from 0 ms to 1000 ms. RESONANCE: offers all the naturalness, depth and warmth of the analog delays, but with the addition of a resonance filter, which gives the sound a psychedelic touch, with a flavor of period synth. Time can be varied from 0 ms to 1000 ms. MOD: an analog delay which adds to the repetitions a multi-vocal choral effect, giving them range and depth. Useful for creating airy and ethereal effects. Time can be varied from 0 ms to 930 ms.

The Half Pint was designed to be the most versatile low power amplifier possible. Reverb and tremolo and Class A single ended breakup are just the start of what this little amp can do. With the onboard voltage controlled power scaling, you can turn this amp up to 10 and dial it back to just a fraction of a watt so that your fun zone is volume appropriate for just about anywhere.  This amp is comfortable on stage, in studio, and at home. Because of the variable power, you can set it how you like and adjust the power level for the room.  The power section of this amplifier consists of a single 6V6 power tube biased to class A. The front end is similar to the Creamer, with extended headroom reverb and tremolo. Four speaker options help tailor the Half Pint to your unique style: Celestion Greenback 12" is a transparent sounding speaker. Bright, Lively, and efficient. This speaker has a big bottom even at low volume. This speaker has very little breakup and does not color the amp when driven.  Jupiter Alnico 12" has a classic American alnico magnet sound. A bit less transparent in the upper midrange, this speaker adds a "woody" tone. Its lively on top, and a bit more focused in the bass response than the Greenback. The speaker starts to break up and add alnico character as the amp is pushed. Its the most efficient of the 3 speaker options.  VSOP Alnico 12" is warm, buttery smooth, and slightly less "loud" feeling than the other Alnico options. Its very good for getting the full tone from the amp without disruptive volume levels.  Celestion Alnico Blue 12" takes the Pint in a different direction. This speaker is very mid forward with little midrange scoop. The top is bright, and the bass response is the tightest out of the three options. This speaker starts to break up when the amp is driven hard. When the amp is overdriven, the Blue is extremely reactive shedding low end and pushing the midrange further into the fun zone.  The amplifier is hand wired onto a turret board with Mercury Magnetics and Jupiter capacitors are standard equipment.

I design amps based on my own experience and needs, and when it came time to design the Creamer, I wanted to find a balance between a perfectly voiced guitar tone with a fair amount of power and portability. Everyone loves low power vintage amplifiers, but sometimes I need a bit more power, reliability, and headroom on the gig. In studio, the Creamer is virtually silent when idle. Its the ultimate refinement and alternative to the vintage small format amplifier.  I wanted the Creamer to be very versatile so I included an adjustable cathode bias circuit so that the user can easily substitute 6L6 or 6V6 output tubes with no need to rebias the output tubes. I have added a rear mounted switch to maintain an 8ohm speaker output regardless of which tube type used. Inside of the chassis, you will find an internal bias adjustment in case you want to fine tune the cathode bias when substituting in vintage tubes which tend to draw more current.  With 6V6 the Creamer puts out about 20 watts into 8ohms and has sweet breakup. Put a pair of 6L6s in, flip the switch on the rear panel and you get a bit of more low end, subtler mids, and a touch more headroom.  The tremolo circuit in the Creamer is unique and sounds outstanding. It is harmonically rich, deep, and has a very useful range of speed.   Three speaker options help tailor the Creamer to your unique style: Jupiter Large Ceramic 12" is a transparent sounding speaker. Bright, Lively, and very efficient. Its got a great bottom end even at low volume. This speaker will not break up no matter how hard you push the amp.  Jupiter Alnico 12" has a classic American alnico magnet sound. A bit less transparent in the upper midrange, this speaker adds a "woody" tone to the Creamer. Its still lively on top, and a bit more focused in the bass response than its ceramic magnet brother. The speaker starts to break up and add alnico character as the amp is pushed.  Celestion Alnico Creamback 12" takes the Creamer into a totally new direction. This speaker is very mid forward with little midrange scoop. The top is smooth and bright, and the bass response is the tightest out of the three options. This speaker starts to break up when the amp is driven hard, adding a unique midrange boost as you push it.  Like all Milkman amplifiers, the Creamer is built using the finest possible components onto a turret board, and is hand wired with cloth covered wire.

The Amp is now available in a 12" combo with many of the same features as the pedal: universal power input between 100-240V, a balanced line level output with analog cabinet simulation, splashy reverb, rich VCA tremolo, and portability. The 12" combo brings The Amp into a new dimension as a full featured grab and go amplifier. The Amp is housed in a lightweight and resonant Pine cabinet with a 12" Celestion Creamback Neo speaker with a total weight of only 22 pounds! For silent stages, The Amp can be run in "Mute" mode which disables the speaker output while sending signal to the direct output. The overall tone is identical to The Amp, and like the pedal all of the outputs are live all of the time which makes signal routing a breeze. Effects can be individually bypassed with the included 2 button foot switch. The Amp 12" Combo adds an external speaker output so you can power a second 8ohm speaker and create even more of a presence on stage. With a second speaker attached, The Amp puts out 100W (into 4ohms) which is plenty of power for large venues.      WATTAGE 50W with internal 8ohm speaker 100W with both internal speaker and 8ohm extension attached EFFECTS Reverb and Tremolo DIMENSIONS & WEIGHT 19-7/8" W x 16" H x 9" D 22lbs

The TV40 is the first in a new series of "Top Loading" Milkman amplifiers in TV Front cabinets Boasting 40 watts from a pair of 6L6 power tubes, the TV 40 has massive cleans and headroom. There is an internal 3 knob reverb system for dialing in a wide variety of reverb tones.  The TV40 is based on my popular 40W Pedal Steel Mini circuit, however it has been redesigned into a larger cabinet with an 8ohm output to increase the speaker and layout options. This amplifier can be ordered in all of the custom shop finishes (including solid woods) and also as a 1x15 or 2x10 combo.  The preamp has controls for volume, treble, midrange and bass as well as a bright switch for low volume fidelity. This is a single channel amplifier with inputs for two instruments. The TV40 has a 5AR4 rectifier tube and like all Milkman amplifiers is hand wired onto a turret board with Mercury Magnetics transformers and Jupiter Capacitors standard. It is built into a custom aluminum chassis and housed in a Pine cabinet.    WATTAGE 40W Class AB SPEAKER 12" Jupiter Alnico, 8ohm EFFECTS 3 knob reverb system CUSTOM FINISH Tuxedo DIMENSIONS & WEIGHT 22" W x 20" H x 10-1/2" D 38lbs
