Keeley Manis Overdrive

Keeley pens the next chapter in the legend of the mythical Klone with the Manis Overdrive. The essential germanium diodes are at the heart of the myth, faithfully delivering iconic tones — but that’s far from where the story ends. A toggle switch lets you engage Cold War-era germanium transistors for added sustain, saturation, and a tube-like response you can really feel under your fingertips. You can maintain character and punch while dialling down the upper-mid honk, tailoring your tone with precision.

Need more low-end? A dedicated bass boost switch drops the cutoff an octave and adds 3dB — ideal for recovering single coil low-end. Built tough and uniquely capable of running at 18V for increased headroom, the Manis is a true first of its kind. It’s a modernised, voltage-doubled hard-clipping boost for purists and converts alike.

Key Features:

• The Manis is a voltage-doubled hard-clipping “clean boost”
• Ge-Trans Switch – Choose between diodes or transistors for a huge difference in feel, with increased saturation and tube-like compression
• Bass+ Switch – Lowers the frequency response by one octave and adds 3dB of gain
• True Bypass or Buffered Bypass / Silent Switching – Choose whichever works best for your rig
