The MXR Randy Rhoads Concorde Distortion Plus: A Faithful Tribute to a Legendary Tone

Authentically Recreated Distortion Circuit

The MXR Randy Rhoads Concorde Distortion Plus is a loving homage to the pedal that fueled some of the most iconic guitar tones in rock history. With direct access to Randy's original Distortion+ unit for the first time in over four decades, the MXR team meticulously reverse-engineered the pedal that helped define his searing lead tone. This special edition offers players an authentic recreation of that raw and harmonically rich distortion, faithfully echoing the sound that launched a thousand riffs.

Rock Legacy, Reimagined for Today

More than just a reissue, this pedal represents a convergence of family legacy, musical innovation, and pure tone obsession. The Rhoads family worked closely with the design team, offering unprecedented access to Randy's personal gear. From this collaboration emerged a pedal that not only pays tribute to Randy’s unmistakable voice on the guitar, but also delivers a distortion character that still punches through with clarity, aggression, and saturation in modern setups.

Concorde-Inspired Aesthetics

The special edition’s design draws visual inspiration from Randy's famed white Flying V guitar, an instrument itself inspired by the Concorde jetliner. The enclosure features a refined finish accented by pinstripe detail, echoing the streamlined look of that legendary axe. Whether on your board or in your collection, this pedal makes a visual statement as bold as its sound.

Built for the Spotlight

Designed to push high-gain amps into creamy saturation and controlled chaos, the Concorde Distortion Plus excels at channeling rich harmonics and maintaining clarity across all gain settings. Its simple control layout keeps things intuitive, making it easy to dial in just the right amount of bite and sustain whether you're laying down solos or slicing through a dense mix.

Limited Collector's Edition

Each unit includes an exclusive collector’s booklet. It’s an ideal addition for both players and fans who want to honor the spirit and legacy of one of the most influential guitarists in rock and metal.
