The Gamechanger 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.

Gamechanger Audio's Plasma pedal is truly unique; standing out within a stompbox market that's overflowing with options. Producing a gnarly, spluttery distorted tone via a series of electrical discharges that occur within its built-in xenon tube; the highly-unconventional Plasma pedal is the first (and only) commercial musical device that literally amplifies your audio signal up to 3500 Volts. Trust us, there's nothing quite like it!

However, Gamechanger Audio's Plasma Coil pedal is a tweaked version of the original formula. Created in collaboration with Jack White's Third Man Records, the Plasma Coil relies on the exact same 'High Voltage Distortion' technology that the original is so admired for, but takes it to new heights.

By adding multiple octaver-style circuits and an additional effects footswitch that can be toggled as latching or momentary, the Plasma Coil gives you even more room for experimentation. You can form crazy sub/upper harmonic octave-fuzz sounds just like Jack White, or employ the effect footswitch as a volume boost for when your solos need an extra push.

Features

  • High Voltage Plasma Distortion Circuit: Converts audio signal into a series of electrical discharges at 3.5 kV

Controls

  • 2 EQ Controls: Lets you boost or cut Low and High frequencies
  • Master Volume Knob: Cuts or boosts the output signal level
  • Voltage Knob: Adjusts the amount of electrical current sent to the Plasma Tube

Effect Knob

  • 2 Subharmonic Modes (Bitcrush-style Octave Down)
  • 1 Upper Harmonic Mode (Octafuzz-style Octave Up)
  • 2 Mixed Modes (Upper and Lower harmonics combined)

Other

  • Effect Footswitch: Engages the Plasma Coil’s special effect circuit
  • Effect Footswitch Toggle: Configure Effects Footswitch as a latching On/Off switch or as a Momentary switch
  • On/Off Switch: Silent footswitch
  • Input Jack: Mono

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.

Distortion

Distortion pedals deliver the raw, aggressive edge that defines rock and metal, transforming your clean tone into something powerful and full of attitude. By pushing your signal into rich harmonic saturation, they create thick, sustaining sounds that cut through any mix. From classic crunchy riffs to high-gain modern mayhem, distortion pedals give you total control over how wild or tight your tone gets. Whether you’re crafting searing leads or heavy rhythm walls, they’re an essential tool for adding energy, bite, and character to your playing.

Octave

An octave effect shifts the guitar signal up or down by one or more octaves and blends it with the original sound. It is used to add thickness, create bass-like lines, or produce higher, harmonised tones, making it popular for lead playing, riffs, and creative sound design.

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.
