PRELOVED VOX Satchurator Joe Satriani Distortion / Overdrive Pedal
The VOX Satchurator is Joe Satriani’s signature high-gain distortion / overdrive pedal, built for big, smooth lead tones, crunchy rhythm sounds and expressive playing response.
Designed to deliver a powerful analogue drive voice with plenty of sustain, the Satchurator works well for classic rock, hard rock, blues-rock, fusion and Satriani-style lead tones. It gives you the familiar Gain, Tone and Volume layout, plus two extra performance-focused features: a Pad switch for controlling input response and a More footswitch for kicking in an extra gain and midrange boost.

Why Players Like It
The Satchurator is a great choice for players who want a drive pedal with more gain and sustain than a standard overdrive, but with a smoother, more controlled feel than a harsh distortion box.
The More switch is especially handy live, letting you jump from rhythm gain to a bigger lead sound without needing another pedal. The Pad switch also makes it practical for different guitars and pedalboard setups, especially if you are running wah or other effects before it.
