AMP DEATH

AMP DEATH

Broken yet beautiful. My goal was to replicate the sound of a broken amplifier with all it’s glorious “velcro” texture and fuzzy gated decay. The transistors in this original circuit are pushed to the absolute limit of their operating range. 

Pair with your favourite OD to add some broken texture and decay to your drive sound. Put it after reverb to add a thick wall of sound that’s perfect for shoegaze or noise rock. Can also do the starved vintage fuzz thing with the texture knob all the way up.  And due to the gating nature of the AMP DEATH distortion device - the pedal is very quiet when on but not playing. Probably the quiestest distortion/fuzz I’ve ever heard. Note that it doesnt "clean up" well like a fuzz face. Turning down the volume on your guitar will make the broken decay effect stronger and the transistors will eventually shut off. 

Controls:

• Texture: controls the bias of the transistors
• Level: master volume
• Freq: adds in low end weight as you turn it up

Features:

• 9V standard power supply only 
• Quality through-hole pcb construction 
• Created and handmade with love by humans
