First up is the germanium diode switch. The essential germanium diodes are at the heart of the myth. By substituting essential germanium diodes with germanium transistors (circa Cold War era) Keeley increases the compression and saturation of the tone. The Manis can give a softer attack that sounds more like a tube amp—less ice-pick, more tube amp feel. This feels incredible under the fingertips too. The bass boost switch lowers the cutoff by exactly one octave and increases the output by +3dB, making it the perfect low-end recovery and push for single coil guitars. True bypass or buffered silent switching can be selected on the fly. The Manis is built like a tank and is the first Klone you can power with 18 volts. The Manis is a hard clipping clean boost that has been updated and modernized with Keeley’s power supply improvements as well as other tonal refinements to the original circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSwitchable Germanium Diodes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGermanium is a rare earth metal.
