Unmatched Quality. Mythical Tone.

A Testament to Superior Craftsmanship.

The Alcmene® was painstakingly created in the USA utilizing cutting-edge technology to create a work of beauty that sounds as stunning as it looks. No compromises were made to deliver this homage to the most legendary overdrive circuit in history.

From its sleek metallic finish and elegantly embossed artwork to the anodized knobs, the Alcmene® demands attention on any pedalboard.


Authentic Germanium Tone

Staying true to the original "Centaur" circuit form, the Alcmene® features NOS 1N34A Germanium Clipping Diodes. This ensures the pedal delivers the authentic voice purists demand.

  • From Clean to Mean: Capable of a variety of tones, from a gentle, transparent clean boost that preserves your amp's character to a full-fledged Germanium saturated distortion when the gain is cranked.

  • Active Treble Control: Precisely sculpt your top-end frequencies. Whether you need to cut harshness or boost clarity, this active control puts the final polish on your sound.

  • Gold-Plated Integrity: The circuit board is gold-plated, ensuring perfect signal integrity and top-tier performance for years to come.

Enhanced Headroom

One of the most notable features of the Alcmene® is its integrated Charge Pump.

  • Internal Voltage Doubling: While powered by a standard 9V supply, the internal voltage rails are boosted.

  • Dynamic Response: This higher internal voltage provides massive headroom and touch sensitivity, giving you the open, wide response associated with the rigs of legends like John Mayer, Nels Cline, and Joe Perry.

Using Normcore Tamper
Size: 53.3mm Flat Base
This tamper is very easy to use and has a perfect weight thanks to the stainless steel build. It evenly tamps the espresso puck, and the 53.3mm fit works flawlessly with my Breville Espresso machine. The puck prep I’m able to achieve has noticeably improved the taste of my espresso. The sleek design is modern, durable, and looks great on my coffee bar.

It's what'd you would expect
Size: 58.5mm Flat Base
I work in espresso professionally and got this as a tester for ergonomic purposes. It does its job as a tamper and does level with little dusting from it being 58.5mm. The self leveling does work. However depending on my baskets (using vst now) it will.self level where the lowest part of the puck is handle side and highest.part opposite. Not an issue with the tamp but something to be mindful of. Works perfectly well on my gaggia setup...not so much commercial grade. The spring is adequate but i tend to tamp a bit harder on heavy weather days.. Build quality is fine but i would have rather used a regular style tamper. Also palm tampers pretty much need to be self leveling based on the ergonomic nature.

Solidly constructed and has a premium, hefty weight
Size: 58.5mm
Works exactly as described. Can be a bit heavy but otherwise it is a premium built product. If you have too much coffee in your basket and they're near the rim of it, coffee can get stuck to the sides of the distributor. A little annoying but easily remedied by brushing the grounds back into the basket or by "flattening" the coffee grounds in the basket first prior to distributing.

Would purchase again
Size: 58.5mm Flat Base
Fits my Gemilai portafilter perfectly. Works as expected, but can be slightly unlevel in tamping. Has a tendency to push the coffee down more on the handle side of the basket. I try to make sure I apply pressure in the middle of the tamper and it seems to make all the difference.
