MXR has unveiled a rebooted and more feature-laden version of its cult-classic Blue Box—the M306 Poly Blue Octave.
Popularized by the likes of Jimmy Page, the original Blue Box is iconic for its fuzz effect and two octave-down pitch-shift capabilities.
With the Poly Blue Octave, the brand has taken the DNA of the original Blue Box and coupled it with some new-and-improved specs to cater to the needs of modern guitarists.
Promising a more comprehensive pitch-shifting approach, the M306 Poly Blue Octave lets you access four independent octave divisions, each with its own level dials labeled as Sub-1, Sub-2, Oct+1, and Oct+2.
Other notable features include a two-mode modulation effect to unleash Leslie/Phase 90-esque effects and an expression output that gives you expression pedal-operated command over various parameters.
You can now preorder the MXR M306 Poly Blue Octave for $199.
