Empress Effects Distortion

From mild to crunch to lead, the empress distortion does it all. This true bypass pedal offers three flavors of distortion while retaining a super tight low end andnaturally compressing like a high gain amp.

The mild setting offers gentle break-up that cleans up with your volume knob. The crunch setting is tight,with good bite. The lead setting offers high gain with lots of sustain.

Gain control, two bands of EQ and output control allow you to tweak the sound to taste.

• 3 Flavors of Distortion - Select between mild, crunch and lead.
• Mild - gentle break-up that cleans up with your volume knob.

• Lead - high gain with lots of sustain.
• EQ - Hi shelf and low shelf EQs let you tweak your sound.

• True Bypass - The Empress Distortion employs true bypass, so you can be sure that it's not affecting the signal when disengaged.
