FOR SUMMER NAMM 2013 RELEASE:
Introducing the Amptweaker TightMetal Pro Pedal
Sugar Hill, GA, July 10, 2013
Since introducing the popular TightMetal™ distortion pedal in 2011, Amptweaker™
has received many requests for a two button version. Unlike most distortion pedals
with boost, the TightMetal Pro includes 2 Boost knobs, one before and one after the
distortion…..so it’s easy to boost the gain AND volume, for the perfect solo tone.
There’s also a Midboost button that works with the output Boost knob, to help solos
cut through the mix.
We also polled many customers who didn’t like the TightMetal, to find out what tone
changes could be offered to reign in those other metal tones. The result is the
Smooth Edge switch which cuts the high end sizzle for a warmer edge, and 2 Fat
switches allow either the normal or Boosted tones to have a thicker attack with a bit
more compression. The added three band EQ allows for much tonal variation, with its
Thrash button for more traditional deeper scooped mids. Our standard noise gate
from the original TightMetal is also included, with the hard stopping Chomp setting
to help keep the rhythm as tight as possible…..especially when doing very quick riffs
with a lot of palm-muted stops. Internal adjustments allow for tweaking the gate.
Amptweaker pedals are known for effects loops, and this one has 3: a universal loop,
another active with the boost, and our popular SideTrak loop which activates when
the pedal is OFF, to automatically shut off clean effects.
Standard Amptweaker features: LED illumination of controls, 14 gauge steel housing
and true bypass switching.
