Mythos Pedals released the SusMaryOsep! V2, an update to its three-in-one signature pedal made with guitarist R.J. Ronquillo, the maker announced. The original debuted in 2019¹, and the maker says the two began discussing a drive and echo pedal in early 2019².

The V2 replaces the V1's sliders with knobs and combines a silicon treble booster, an updated Herculean overdrive and the same echo circuit as before, now with its controls on the face². The maker describes the boost as its take on the classic germanium design reworked for a more consistent silicon transistor, with a three-way tone switch for bright, mid-forward or bass-heavy sounds, and two internal trimmers for gain range and bias². The overdrive is the Herculean V2 adjusted for a more open voice, relying completely on the op amp for clipping². The echo uses a PT2399 chip with approximately 450ms of delay time, a Mix knob and Time and Feedback trimmers, with two small dots marking Ronquillo's preferred slap setting². The maker also says the switching has been refined for less popping².

Specifications given by the maker²:

Guitar World reported the pedal is available now for $329¹. It also reported that the V2 keeps Level, Drive, Tone and Bass controls for the overdrive, and that the Time and Feedback knobs sit on the face beneath the echo mix control¹. The maker's product page lists the echo controls as a Mix knob with Time and Feedback trimmers², while the same page's specification list describes an external Mix slider with side-accessible Time and Feedback trimpots².
