Tech 21 Tech 21 Sansamp Classic Amp Emulator - Long & McQuade Musical Instruments

Description

The design of the Classic inspired many Tech 21 products but theres still only one original. Of all the pedal models, this is the most sophisticated. Its unconventional design not only keeps the unit compact, it is key to the wide range of sounds you can achieve. Made almost entirely by hand, the main module contains a bank of eight Character switches, which adjust the fine and subtle nuances of tonality, harmonics and dynamics. A three-position Input switch gives you a choice of pre-amp styles: Lead (Marshall-style), Normal (Mesa Boogie-style), and Bass (Fender-style) which is excellent for rhythm as well as bass guitar.

This pedal came to me in a round about way and I took forever to try it out. At first it took a while to help out my Yamaha solid state amp which has a stellar very clean sound but did not take pedals very well. With this at the end of my effects chain, along with the micro switches and some adjustment, the amp came to life and it even helps make the clean sound less pristine if you choose some modest settings on the pedal. The above use, and running the guitar straight to this and then a DI to mixer also made and anemic Strat sound perk up when mixed in. A good pedal overall, excellent build quality and ability to make subtle tweaks. The only drawback would be the high price and if you are looking for radical adjustments, this is not the pedal for you. Posted by Curtis on Nov 25, 2012
