P025 – The Lost Fingers of the Hand of Doom

admin — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 11:10:18 +0000

Active ingredient - A carefully selected germanium transistor to add texture to your clean sound or bring clarity and gain to your already dirty amplifier.

Recommended for - Guitarists looking to cut through the mix and add more grit to their amplifier while cleaning up the low frequencies—or anyone seeking a preamp full of personality to enrich their tone.

The Lost Fingers of the Hand of Doom is a pedal that, in both name and sound, pays tribute to the legendary Tony Iommi, guitarist of Black Sabbath. His tone is one of the hardest to replicate in guitar history, and this is due to several factors. Among them is his use of the ultra-rare and long-discontinued Laney Supergroup amplifier, pushed to extreme saturation by a Rangemaster.The Rangemaster is a famous germanium treble booster, also used by Brian May and Rory Gallagher—yet its name scares off many players who have never tried the pedal. What it does isn’t exactly a treble boost—it cuts lows, accentuates high mids, and drives gain, both through its high output volume and the considerable clipping from its germanium transistor. The Lost Fingers modernizes and expands this functionality: using an NPN germanium transistor (which allows powering via a standard Boss-style adapter) selected for the lowest noise level—the pedal also features a Range control. At minimum, it works like an original Rangemaster, but as you turn it clockwise, it allows more low frequencies to pass through the circuit, reaching a full-range boost. This makes the circuit more versatile for different guitar and amplifier voicings, not only tightening up distorted tones and reducing muddiness but also pushing all frequencies of your guitar across various tunings.On top of that, when used in full-range mode, it serves as an excellent preamp to warm up your sound and bring out all the texture of the germanium transistor, with an explosion of complex harmonics and subtle compression. The circuit is optimized to be used right after your guitar, before buffers, and preferably without a wireless transmitter.The Lost Fingers of the Hand of Doom is a pedal built with the finest components on the market, designed for the most demanding guitarists who seek the best possible tones from their instrument and amplifier.

P024 – Sirius OD

admin — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 11:01:44 +0000

Active ingredient - A modernized reinterpretation of two legendary overdrives that only achieved their iconic status decades after their release—and which sound magnificent both separately and when combined.

Recommended for - Guitarists looking for a sound that breaks away from the "tried-and-true" pedals and who want to cover their drive needs with just one pedal (or not).

The Sirius OD is another Dual Drive (Sirius A and Sirius B, like the stars) offered in Collateral’s catalog. The green channel (right side) is based on the cult-classic ODR-1: an overdrive with rich mids—shaped in tandem with highs via its tone control—and a distorted texture quite different from that of a Tube Screamer. With more balanced lows and a modified gain structure, the green channel of the Sirius works well in the mix with any guitar, staying tight and articulate.The blue channel is based on the Bluesbreaker V1, an overdrive often described as "transparent," preserving the natural voicing of your guitar. Unlike the classic Marshall pedal, the blue channel offers plenty of volume and well-balanced highs—enhancing your guitar’s top frequencies without harshness and delivering a subtle, nuanced boost or drive.Combining both sides of the pedal unlocks an even wider range of tones, allowing for gain stacking to achieve high-gain textures or using the blue channel as a volume boost, making the Sirius a complete solution for all your overdrive needs in a single pedal.

P021 – Parsec

admin — Tue, 10 Jun 2025 22:53:18 +0000

Active ingredient - A hi-fi OPAmp with symmetrical clipping from silicon diodes configured for low compression.

Recommended for - This is a versatile pedal that works for ANY type of guitar and bass setup. An extremely versatile, low-noise overdrive/boost with an impressive sound.

Parsec is an astronomical unit of measurement equivalent to 3.26 light-years. Its circuit is characterized by total fidelity to the sound of your instrument. Its compression is natural, and the pedal does not add midrange or cut the bass frequencies of your guitar or bass—serving as the perfect "glue" between your instrument and your amplifier.In addition to its gain range, which goes from a clean boost to a mid-gain drive, the Parsec has enough output volume to saturate the tubes of your amp or any overdrive pedal placed before it in the signal chain.

P020 – Toranja Compressor

admin — Thu, 15 May 2025 00:12:40 +0000

Active ingredient - JFETs for compression with an organic sound and very low noise level.

Recommended for - Guitarists and bassists seeking more sustain and a more balanced volume level for their picking or plucking attack, also serving as a volume boost.

Introducing the Toranja Compressor, based on JFET technology. Unlike traditional compressors that flatten all the frequencies of your guitar into a uniform mass, the Toranja allows the dynamics of your instrument to be preserved alongside the compression line, adding sustain, definition, and personality to your tone—giving a studio-quality feel to your sound.The Toranja compressor has its origins in the extremely rare Dan Armstrong Orange Squeezer, which is known for preserving the high frequencies of your instrument, resulting in an incredibly organic tone with very low noise levels. Its blend control allows you to mix your clean signal with the compressed signal, maintaining your instrument's timbre and sounding amazing on guitars (both single coils and humbuckers), acoustic guitars, basses, and even as a vocal effect.Moreover, the Toranja has plenty of output to be used as a volume or gain boost, making it a complete and versatile tool for transforming your tone.Note: the pedal features a trimpot that SHOULD NOT BE TOUCHED BY THE USER.

P013 – Black Hole Sunn

admin — Mon, 04 Dec 2023 14:18:06 +0000

Active ingredient - Based on the preamp of the legendary Sunn Model T amplifiers, featuring a powerful gain boost.

Recommended for - Stoner Heads on duty, but also for those seeking a preamp/overdrive full of personality and that breaks away from the same old same old.

The Black Hole Sunn is based on the legendary and massive Sunn Model T amplifiers, which were designed for use with both guitars and basses. Like many amplifiers of the time, they featured two inputs: normal and high treble, each with its individual gain. Similar to the practice with Marshall Plexi amps, it is common to "jump" these two channels and use them in parallel to offer a more balanced and less shrill sound - and here, this option is represented by the Normal and Bright knobs, which refer to the gain of each of these stages.

Additionally, the Black Hole Sunn features a powerful three-band equalizer, being an excellent tone shaper and a great choice for various music genres, offering everything from a beautiful and bright clean tone to devastating sounds, rich in bass, gain, and sustain, excellent for playing in lower tunings. In addition to having a gain boost stage, the Black Hole Sunn works very well when pushed by other overdrives, boosts, and fuzz pedals. Doom over the World!

P011 – Chili Pre

admin — Mon, 26 Jun 2023 23:47:49 +0000

Active ingredient - The colorful sound of the Boss CE-1 preamp.

Recommended for - Those who consider John Frusciante's tone as a sonic reference.

The Boss CE-1 was the first "compact" chorus pedal on the market, designed not only for the guitar but for electric instruments in general. For this purpose, its operation depended on an always active preamp that allowed selecting a high or low impedance input signal - however, this preamp remains active even when the Chorus itself is turned off. In other words, even in bypass, this preamp, which also features a gain control, affects the guitar signal.

This characteristic did not go unnoticed by its most famous users, John Frusciante (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Dean DeLeo (Stone Temple Pilots) - and the sound of the CE-1 preamp became an integral part of their clean tone and that of many other guitarists. However, besides being an expensive and rare pedal, these are very old units that require direct plug-in power, in addition to being famously noisy.

The Chili Pre brings only the circuit of the classic preamp, allowing it to be turned off (with true bypass operation), and the power system converted to the standard 9v (internally converted to +14/-13v, just like the original). It offers all the richness of color and the significant gain provided by the CE-1 preamp at your feet, ranging from a clean boost/tone enhancer to a low-gain drive.

P005 – Continuum OD

admin — Mon, 22 May 2023 23:43:39 +0000

Active ingredient - Two legendary overdrives in guitar history available in a compact format.

Recommended for - Those who dream of a John Mayer in a Box.

There is no denying that John Mayer's album Continuum is one of the most influential albums for guitarists from 2006 onwards. The killer Strat tone is the result, among other factors, of using pedals like the Ibanez TS10 and the Klon Centaur. And it was the combination of these two classics that resulted in the Continuum pedal, the new release from Collateral FX.

But those who think the Continuum is just an attempt to reproduce the sound of the eponymous album are mistaken. The idea here is to bring the characteristics of two classics into one pedal. We took the best of both the TS10 and the Klon, perfected some details, put our own twist on it, and the result was a powerful tool.

With the Continuum, you can obviously achieve that Strat sound leaning towards John Mayer and Stevie Ray Vaughan, but you can go further, especially if you combine both channels and crank up the gain. You can also leave one of them on to add some color to the sound and push through solos with the other. The Continuum's proposal is to bring that atmosphere for fans of John Mayer, of course. But if you're not so keen on his sound, remember that the Continuum is an opportunity to have in one pedal the two most iconic overdrives in history.

P004 – Icarus

admin — Sun, 07 May 2023 01:04:53 +0000

Active ingredient - Germanium diodes and blend of your clean signal.Recommended for - Demanding guitarists seeking a defined overdrive, with plenty of headroom, and that works well as a clean boost, gain boost, and main drive, avoiding the nasal voicing of TS-like pedals.The hype surrounding the Klon Centaur has led to unbelievable prices for this pedal. But long before that, we had embarked on a mission to correct some details in this classic guitar pedal - from years of work came the Icarus, which has its DNA based on the Klon, but with its own details, like the gain control, which is linear, meaning: you can have subtle doses of overdrive starting from the 9 o'clock position and then increase the gain according to each one's taste. In the original pedal, it's very difficult to get gain before the 12 o'clock position.Another adjustment the Icarus has compared to the original is in the treble control, which we have shifted a bit towards the mid-bass region. This makes it the best Klon-style drive to use with Marshall amplifiers, for example. Overall, it's a delight to have one of the most popular overdrive and booster pedals in history. With the Icarus, it's the chance to have a Klon with the best components on the market, spending much less.We like the Icarus so much that in our opinion, every guitarist should have one, whether to thicken the sound a la John Mayer, to push other drives, or to crank up the gain and have it as your main overdrive.Operating voltage: 9v Compatible instruments: Electric Guitar Types of effects: Overdrive/Preamp/Boost/Buffer Power types: Adapter Dimensions HxWxD (cm): 11x6x4 Weight (g): Warranty: 1 year (against manufacturing defects)
