Dunlop is kicking off the introduction of the MXR Custom Badass line with the release of the MXR M78 Custom Badass '78 Distortion. To celebrate the release, the company is giving 20 pedals away. All you have to do is answer some questions on the Jim Dunlop website – winners will be chosen at random. Here's what Jim Dunlop has to say about the pedal:

The MXR Custom Badass '78 Distortion, a factory modded pedal that roars with huge amp stack tones and old school tube amp distortion, is the first of MXR's Custom Badass line. We took a classic distortion circuit and hot-rodded it to the next level for over-the-top soaring leads and rich, saturated rhythms. With only three knobs, dialing in Badass tone is a cinch. The CRUNCH button allows you to choose between two different modes of diode and LED clipping, boosting the harmonic content of the distortion. The '78 Distortion's wide open amp-like sound sounds great whether it's in front of a clean amp, a slightly dirty amp, or a full on overdriven amp. Under the hood, this high performance machine features top notch circuitry and hardware meant for a lifetime of use.
