Discerning guitarists that know great tone when they hear it will instantly recognize the ROCKMOD as a truly world-class preamp.
Note: The following channel descriptions are common to all ROCKMOD heads, combos and pre-amps.
The BURN channel produces a huge amount of articulate and musical gain with an ability to retain its openness and dynamics. Every note played is easily tracked with excellent clarity and rich harmonics explode across the entire fret board. With the Post-Gain knob, all amounts of saturation can be controlled, from light to heavy.
The CRUNCH channel has that unmistakably British-flavored bark and growl that is tight, grinding, and totally classic rock. Vintage and "modified" amp sounds are available for full-bodied chunky rhythms and stringy, bluesy solos. From low to high-gain tones, they are all here in this very versatile channel.
The CLEAN channel is rich and full-bodied with a beautiful, crystal clear tone with notes that jump out and snap with a detailed and articulate voice. A variety of tones are possible, from super clean with high headroom, to edgy and pushed, dirty-clean sounds.
