Description: The Dan Armstrong Blue Clipper was first marketed in the 1970s as part of the "color" named small effect boxes built by Mu-Tron in New Jersey. Sibling effects were the Green Ringer, Purple Peaker, Red Ranger, etc. These effects were built to plug straight into the guitar or amp. Boxes were simple extruded aluminum square tubing fitted with cover plates. A hard wired male 1/4" plug, toggle bypass switch and female 1/4" out jack were the main features on the boxes. It has been said the Blue Clipper was the precursor to the MXR Distortion + It has a rich, thick fuzz that cleans up nicely with the volume now. The interaction with the volume knob is pretty unique for a fuzz pedal In the 80's, WD licensed the designs for a while made in Korea. They have long since been discontinued. This one is NEW OLD STOCK, meaning that it was purchased by Subway Guitars in the '80s and stored since then. It includes the original box and owner's manual. This item has never been sold. We carefully removed it from the box in order to test it, and it works great. It was carefully repacked and it presents as a new item. A real time machine piece. For safety reasons, we will ship it without the 9-volt battery.
