STAR TEX — AMP-STYLE OVERDRIVE
Star Tex is a hand-built overdrive designed around the warm, dynamic breakup associated with cranked American-style tube amps.

Your pedals are more than just boxes; they're sonic sculptors, crafting the very essence of your sound. To keep them performing at their peak, heed these sacred commandments of pedal care:
The Tenets of Pedal Preservation
- Unplug the Beast: Before diving into the cleaning ritual, always disconnect your pedal from the power source. This simple act prevents electrical mishaps and ensures your safety.
- A Gentle Wipe: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently caress the pedal's exterior. Remove dust, grime, and the residue of countless gigs.
- The Forbidden Liquid: Water, the nemesis of electronics, must be banished from your cleaning routine. Avoid liquid cleaners and moisture at all costs.
- The Sacred Knob: When cleaning knobs, rotate them gently, ensuring no debris enters the delicate inner workings.
- The Jack's Domain: Utilize a specialized contact cleaner to maintain the integrity of your input and output jacks. A gentle spray and a few rotations will do the trick.
- The Power Supply's Purpose: A well-regulated power supply is the lifeblood of your pedalboard. Keep it clean and free from dust, ensuring optimal performance.
- The Periodic Purge: Regularly inspect your pedalboard for loose cables, faulty connections, and signs of wear. A well-maintained board is a happy board.
- The Holy Grail of Storage: When not in use, store your pedals in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.
- The Forbidden Modding: Unless you're a seasoned electronics wizard, resist the urge to tinker with your pedals' internal circuitry. Leave it to the experts.
- The Ritual of Respect: Treat your pedals with reverence. They are the tools of your musical expression, deserving of care and attention.
By adhering to these sacred tenets, you'll ensure that your pedals continue to deliver sonic bliss for years to come.
