When boutique pedal designers need to produce effects at scale, they can turn to Kentucky's All-Pedal.

Located in Paducah, it's a 24,000-square-foot factory that offers product design, circuit layouts, machining, printing, and more. The company describes itself as "a home-grown shop with sophisticated production capabilities," and such capabilities have been instrumental to a lot of other companies' pedals you know and love.

Recently, the folks at All-Pedal have gone a step further, taking everything they've learned in building others' pedals to launch their own line. And with everything being done in-house, effects like the Galactavise Compressor, Slamurai Overdrive, and Love Machine Fuzz offer boutique tones at affordable prices—and include free worldwide shipping.

Today, All-Pedal has announced the launch of the Alcmene, its take on the famous Klon Centaur circuit overdrive, for quite literally a fraction of the price.

For the occasion, we're getting an inside look at the All-Pedal factory. Keep scrolling to see how the Alcmene and the rest of All-Pedal's offerings are made.
