Main Features

 

 

Thanks to COSM technology, this distortion pedal delivers some of the most powerful
distortion you’ve ever heard. You get 22 different kinds of distortion sound, from vintage
classics to new, original sounds.

 

 

Features ATTACK SHAPE for changing the picking expression, and a HEAVY OCTAVE
feature, which produces a fat octave sound, allowing you to create an even wider variety of
sounds.

 

 

With four Memories plus Manual, you can use the pedal to switch through a total of five
sounds.

 

 

Built-in Amp Control feature makes it possible to switch amp channels and perform other

 

controls that make your setup even more powerful when combined with an amp.
