British Distortion - A Tone Guide
Devotees of classic British amps stand up and be counted! Our new British Distortion pedal offers guitarists the thick, rich, harmonic laden sound that launched a thousand bands. From crunchy rock tones at lower gain settings to searing sustain-drenched solo sounds when pushed to the max, the British Distortion will redefine your idea of what is possible to achieve without messy, hard-to-maintain tubes. Fed up with a dry, sterile distortion sound? Check out the soundfiles below to get an idea of what’s possible with the British Distortion.

Low Gain Crunch

At low gain settings the British Distortion offers great crunchy rhythm tones, and tight blues-rock lead tones.

Medium Gain Versatility
At medium gain settings, sustain starts to increase and the harmonic boost and warmth of the British Distortion starts to kick in.

High Gain Scream
Saturated tube-like tones come to the fore at high gain settings – sustain that lasts for days and incredible harmonics jump of the fret board. Think of any player that plays a British amp “cranked” to the max, and start playing!
