An authentic re-creation, from mane to hoof
From their microphones to their studio tools, Warm Audio is exacting in their quest to replicate iconic vintage gear. The Centavo is no exception, boasting ultra-premium parts, including TL072 op amps, high-end diodes, carbon and metal film resistors, and a charge-pump voltage regulator. We’ll leave the technical analysis to Sweetwater’s electronics engineers; however, to put it in plain English, the Centavo is about as close as you’re going to get to an original without paying well over four figures!
“Mod” switch for beefed-up bass
For many guitarists, the pedal of Centavo’s inspiration is a Holy Grail, and it\'s considered sacrilege to modify it in any capacity. However, we’re thankful that the world’s pedal gurus are willing to desecrate the proverbial (and black epoxy) seal on the heavenly horse, twisting and tuning components to provide us with the most tonal utility possible! Warm Audio has included one of the common mods found on the original pedal: a bass-boosting “Mod” switch located on the back of the pedal. This setting is particularly useful for beefing up the tone of a low-output single-coil guitar, providing some heft to your bottom strings.
