Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.35% — somewhat different

The Black Arts Toneworks Priestess is a multi-gain-stage fuzz and distortion pedal described by Guitar Pedal X as a greatest hits of BAT Muffs all in one enclosure. Four gain stages are internally selectable: Pharaoh (higher headroom, great for stacking), Green Russian (solid attack and bottom end), NYC Reissue with Creamy Dreamer Mod (high gain with squish), and LSTR High Output (with vocal midrange). Two independent clipping toggle switches allow turning each clipping diode on or off: Clip 1 switches between standard silicon clipping and Supa Tonebender style; Clip 2 switches between standard silicon and Pharaoh style. Controls: Tone, Mids, Clip 1, Clip 2, Fuzz, Volume.
The Walrus Audio Voyager MKII is a substantial redesign of the original Voyager transparent overdrive, adding a footswitchable parametric mid-frequency EQ with +/-12dB boost/cut and a Freq knob sweeping the midrange center from 250Hz to 2kHz, well beyond the original's simple three-knob layout. It also introduces five distinct clipping modes, Classic 1N34A Germanium, Germanium with Bass Boost, Symmetric Silicon, Asymmetric Silicon, and Asymmetric Silicon with Bass Boost, plus a redesigned enclosure with top-mounted jacks and a soft-touch relay footswitch. This Sea Foam colorway is a finish option on the MKII hardware.
