The Cornerstone Guitar Pedals always come out on top. This is New is in stock and ready to post out to you, with fast, reliable delivery straight to your door. For more New Guitar Pedals options, read on for full specifications, demos, and secure online ordering.

The fusion of two of Cornerstone’s most iconic circuits — GLADIO and ANTIQUE —Imperium V2 is the ultimate dual overdrive pedal. Independently dynamic, ferocious when stacked. With four I/O jacks for full routing control, a versatile tone-shaping section, and intuitive controls like CLEAN, COLOR, PRESENCE, and COMP, Imperium is your new sonic centerpiece.

Gentle, Dynamic, Yet Powerful

Explore the dual nature of the Imperium V2.
From smooth, touch-sensitive overdrive to raw rock tones—use each side on its own or stack them for a wall of sound that’s articulate and powerful. A modern classic with vintage soul.

Gladio SC Side

On the Gladio SC side, the CLEAN knob lets you blend your dry signal with the overdriven tone—giving you total control over dynamics and clarity.
The result? A touch-sensitive overdrive that feels like an extension of your fingers.

Antique Side

On the Antique side, the PRESENCE knob adjusts the high-frequency content after the clipping stage—perfect for dialing in just the right amount of brightness to cut through the mix. Turn it up for added edge and clarity that cuts through the mix, or roll it back for warmer, vintage-flavored tones.

Stack & Reorder Each Side Onto Eachother

Imperium V2 is equipped with four separate I/O jacks—one for each side’s input and output—giving you maximum flexibility in any rig. Use the Gladio and Antique circuits as two completely independent pedals, perfect for pedal switchers and advanced routing setups. Insert effects between the two channels (like a modulation or fuzz), or reorder the signal path to fit your personal flow.

More info about this Product

Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

Dual

Dual describes gear designed with two of the same or complementary features working together, such as dual channels, dual pickups, or dual effects. This allows greater flexibility and tonal range, letting players switch or blend between sounds for different styles, settings, or playing dynamics without changing their setup.

Overdrive

Overdrive pedals add warmth, grit, and natural compression to your tone, capturing the feel of a pushed tube amp. They respond dynamically to your playing, offering everything from a light bluesy crunch to full, saturated rock tones. Perfect for boosting solos or shaping your core sound, an overdrive pedal brings character and life to any setup. Whether you prefer vintage smoothness or modern bite, these pedals are essential for players who want expressive, touch-sensitive drive with plenty of personality.

Pedal

Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own.
