What It Is
The Rowin LEF-301D Distortion IV is a compact distortion pedal built for electric guitar. It uses an analogue circuit housed in a full-metal mini chassis measuring 95mm deep, 45mm wide and 48mm high. The unit draws 26mA from a standard DC 9V negative-centre supply and offers true-bypass switching with an LED status indicator.
Who It Suits
Guitarists who want a small, rugged pedal with three distinct voicings — Original, Extra and Ultra — controlled by Level, Tone and Distortion knobs. The strong mid-range character suits rock and heavier styles. Players needing built-in noise reduction, multiple presets or stereo operation will not find those features here.
Pedalboard Fit
The mini footprint of 45mm width frees valuable board space for additional effects. A DC 9V negative-centre adaptor (not included) is required for power. True-bypass switching keeps the signal path clean when the effect is disengaged, and the 1M ohm input impedance works with typical passive pickups without loading.

Questions about this item
