KGR Harmony USA Arare Overdrive Effect Pedal - Malibu Music Exclusive "Shinkai" Cast Iron

KGR HARMONY effects pedals are handmade in Iwate, Japan. Designed and built by Keijiro Fukushima, KGR HARMONY's circuits and Nanbu-tekki enclosures represent a unique balance of traditional Japanese craft and the best of modern electronic design.

KGR HARMONY effects pedals are housed in cast iron enclosures made using a centuries-old technique known as Nanbu-tekki (南部鉄器). They are cast by hand at Oitomi Ironworks in Ōshū City, a forge that has operated since 1848.

Traditionally used to make items as varied as teapots and hand guards for swords, Keijiro Fukushima has combined the technique with innovative circuit design, guided by a finely-tuned ear for inpsiring, musical tone. KGR HARMONY's effects are unique; modern, yet deeply rooted in tradition.

Malibu Music is proud to carry our exclusive "Shinkai" color way of KGR Harmony's cast iron effect pedals. 

Thick drive with a wide sweet spot, expressive dynamic range, and musical voice. The traditional hailstone pattern evokes expanding grains of rich overdrive.
