After spending some time on the operating table, the Callisto Mk. II, back and better than ever.

The robust engine of the original has been recreated along with some extra features, too. For starters, the Callisto Mk. II is still 100% analogue just like the original for some classic trembling warmth you can really feel. The amount of wobble you require can be dialled in with the Mix control, which achieves 100% wet or dry in either direction. Turning it all the way up delivers a wonderfully tuned pitch vibrato that can add some spice to your twang or some disorienting tape warble for your jangle.

Classic rate and depth controls go beyond the basic two-knob chorus and into hi-fi territory that makes your guitar shine and sound equally great on both lead and rhythm, or any other instrument you find may be lacking in thickness. A cool Feedback control is included, which dumps a varying amount of signal from the output of the BBD chip back into the circuit after the filtering occurs, for a striking regenerative tone that blurs the line between chorus and flanger.

Key Features:

• Bucket brigade chip provides true analog tone
• 100% wet/dry control offers seasick tuned-vibrato tones when cranked
• Standard rate and depth knobs allow you to capture a wealth of different dream-like chorus tones
• Feedback control provides a whooshing flanger-style feel for even greater modulation flexibility
• Signature eye-catching Catalinbread artwork
