Love classic American amp tone? Then you'll love this! Modelled after one of the most famous American amp makers in the world, it'll deliver waves of that broad frequency response, with rounded, deep lows and crisp, bright highs. Whether it's a vintage American tone from the '60s you're after, or one from decades later, you'll be able to dial in your dream sound using the extensive controls. And with a built-in overdrive effect modelled after a famous green pedal from a well-known Japanese manufacturer, you'll be able to add some serious grit and power to your riffs - it's the perfect partner. Topped off with 100% analogue circuitry, you can be sure that every sound coming out of this preamp will be nothing but authentic.
You'll be liberated. With an XLR input and output, you can connect to a PA or mixer desk directly, as well as use this pedal to record into your DAW through an audio interface. The possibilities are endless, but if one thing's certain, it's that your life is about to be made much easier. Don't want to lug a giant tube amp around to gigs? No problem - just take this instead. It sounds spectacular live and no one will know the difference.
Want the ultimate control over your setup? The Screaming Blond has three footswitches to give you just that. Activate or deactivate the pedal with the dedicated True Bypass switch, instantly add an injection of overdrive with the Scream switch, and change between channels with the A/B switch. You'll be able to really expand your capabilities onstage.
