TONE MAPS
Crunchy Spank
Quintessential single coil rock tone with plenty of treble sting and tight bass, complemented with warm gain and a huge amount of output level. This tone is designed to get even the blandest backline amp to offer glorious, touch-responsive overdrive.
Voxey Lady
This gained up, Brit-inspired tone features a sparkling top boost sound that is perfectly suited to all manners of alternative rock. Highly responsive to pickup choice and playing style.
Sweet Mids
Winding up the Gain while dialing back the Treble and Bass controls reveals a gnarly midrange intended to conjure the hot-rodded vintage amp tones of The Reverend Billy F. Gibbons. Turn on, tune up, rock out.
Wooly Mammoth
Soaring violin tone with maximum Gain and the Treble pulled way back to smooth out the high end. This "woman tone" is inspired by the lead sounds of Eric Clapton, David Gilmour and Eric Johnson.
Country Boost
With flat EQ, Gain all the way down and the Volume dimed, the Gamma Drive reveals itself to be a fabulous preamp, adding a huge amount of signal boost while maintaining the essential character of your instrument. Try this setting in front of your favorite tube amp.
