Das dichtere, dunklere FatMetal-Distortion arbeitet perfekt direkt in den Clean Kanal eines Amps oder als Vorverstärker direkt in die Endstufe. Es ist für Gitarristen gedacht, die eine wärmere Distortion suchen, die besser zu hell klingenden Gitarren und Verstärkern passt, weniger auf Palm-Muting abzielt aber trotzdem gut mit Tremolo-Picking ala Black Metal funktioniert. Was die Features angeht ist es identisch mit dem TightMetal, aber der Sound wurde optimiert, um den niedrigeren Frequenzbereich Bereich von Tight- und Tone-Regler zu erweitern. Der hinzugefügte Black Gain-Schalter erhöht den Gain, um den dicken, satten Gain zu liefern, nach dem diese Genres verlangen. Der Thrash-Schalter wandelt den Grundton in einen schwereren, mid-scooped Tone um, der sich perfekt für klassische Vintage-Metal-Sounds eignet. Black Gain modifiziert den Klang in einen sehr dichten und extremen Metal Tone. Das Noise Gate wurde ebenfalls optimiert, um es flüssiger arbeiten zu lassen und mit den reduzierten Höhen des FatMetals noch besser zu klingen. Eine weitere coole Amptweaker-Funktion dieses Pedals ist der SideTrak -Effekt-Loop der aktiviert wird, wenn das Pedal im Bypass ist quasi wie eine integrierte A / B-Box.

The thicker, darker FatMetal distortion works perfectly into a clean channel or as a preamp into an effects return or power amp. It is designed for players who want a warmer distortion that workes better with brighter guitars and amps, but also is less aimed at palm-muted metal, and works better for tremolo-picking Black metal. Featurewise it is identical to the TightMetal but its tone has been tweaked to extend the low range of the Tight and Tone controls. The added Black Gain switch boosts the gain to get the thicker, buzzier gain required for those genres. The Thrash switch converts the basic tone into a heavier, more mid-scooped tone for classic vintage metal tones. Black Gain modifies the sound into a very thick and extreme metal tone that. Its noise gate has also been retweaked to make it smoother, and to sound even better with the reduced highs of the FatMetal. Another cool Amptweaker feature on this pedal is the SideTrak effects loop.that turns on when the pedal is being bypassed ...it's like having a built-in A/B box.

FatMetal

	
Amp Tweaker are renowned for their brilliant drive pedals. Establishing this reputation is not easy in such a competitive market, and to stay ahead of the game they have introduced a raft of Jr. pedals. Boasting the same amazing tones that we love about Amp Tweaker, these pedals are in a smaller, more pedalboard-friendly enclosure.
All the Essentials:
The Tight Fuzz Jr. takes the essential features of its larger counterparts, ensuring that no tone is sacrificed. The Tight/Normal/Fat switch lets you adjust the attack and response of the fuzz. If you want a thick and heavy fuzz tone then the Fat mode will provide, whereas the Normal mode delivers a full-bodied, chunky sound with plenty of character. Switch to the Tight setting to shelve some low-end, giving you a more aggressive tone that will cut through in busy mixes with a crisp bite.
As Versatile As You’d Ever Want:
A 60’s/70’s/Now switch gves you further tonal options. You can go from a classic Hendrix-style fuzz bark, to a more modern and saturated tone that works as well for rhythm tones as it does for leads. Essentially an EQ switch, you can also adjust your sound using the conventional Tone control, allowing you to brighten the fuzz the higher you crank it up!
A Germanium/Silicon switch gives you the best of both worlds. Often argued by Fuzz junkies, changing these output transistors lets you affect the warmth and top-end of the fuzz, meaning you will have no problem “tweaking” the pedal for the perfect fuzz sound. See what I did there?
Here's what Amp Tweaker say about the Tight Fuzz Jr. Pedal:
With the popularity of Amptweaker's smaller footprint JR series, we're now adding bass and guitar versions of our Fuzz pedals....introducing TightFuzz JR?, Bass TightFuzz JR?, BluesFuzz JR?, and Bass BluesFuzz Jr?. These pedals share most of the tone-tweaking features available on their larger counterparts, while eliminating effects loops, lit controls, battery switches and boost features that some players don’t need in order to shrink down the size and weight.
Derived from our Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. On the TightFuzz models, an EQ switch provides 60's, 70's, or 'Now' tones, and there's also a Germanium/Silicon switch to change the output transistor for warmer or brighter/high gain distortion. The same automatically adjusted bias on the Fuzz controls keeps the sweet spot at hand, and is especially nice for cleaner tones. And of course the popular Dry Low control is included on the Bass TightFuzz JR.

Bass TightFuzz Jr

Der Tight-Regler und der Fat-Schalter stammen aus unserer Pro-Serie und wurden zu einem Fat/Normal/Tight-Schalter mit drei Positionen umkonfiguriert, um den Attack der Noten von dick und schwer bis aggressiv und klobig einzustellen.

Ein EQ-Schalter bietet ebenfalls Plexi (Thrash bei TightMetal JR)/Normal/Smooth-Toneinstellungen, mit denen die Pedale einen Großteil des Bereichs ihrer Fat- und Tight-Eltern abdecken.

Zusätzlich zu den Gain-, Tone- und Volume-Reglern gibt es auch ein manuell einstellbares Noise Gate, mit dem sich Noten hart und schnell stoppen lassen. Und das Tolle an einem eingebauten Noise Gate ist, dass es verschwindet, wenn man das Pedal ausschaltet... so, dass der cleane sound nicht beeinträchtigt wird!

Derived from our Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky.

An EQ switch similarly provides Plexi (Thrash on TightMetal JR)/Normal/Smooth tone settings, which helps the pedals cover much of the range of both their Fat and Tight parents.

In addition to Gain, Tone and Volume knobs, there’s also a manually-adjustable Noise Gate which can be cranked to stop notes hard and fast. And the great thing about a built-in noise gate is that it goes away when you turn the pedal off... so your clean tone is unaffected!

Bass TightDrive Jr

Der Bass TightDrive war das erste Amptweaker Bass-Produkt und stellte den beliebten Tight Attack Regler vor. Das Bass TightDrive Overdrive Pedal entstand, nachdem Greg Weeks von The Red Chord die "Gitarren" Version auf der NAMM Show ausprobiert hatte. Diese hatte ihm so gut gefallen, dass schon nach ein paar kleinen Optimierungen die finale Bassversion fertig war. Sie ist perfekt, um den Klang deines Bassamps zu optimieren, vom Straffen des Attacks bis hin zum Aufbau einer dichten Wand aus Overdrive für pick-lastige Metal-Basslinien. Andere berühmte Liebhaber dieses Pedals beinhalten dUg Pinnick von King's X und Sean Frankhouser den Bassisten von Bugs Henderson.

The Bass TightDrive was the first Amptweaker bass product, and introduced the popular Tight attack control. The Bass TightDrive overdrive pedal came about after Greg Weeks from The Red Chord tried out the 'guitar' version at the NAMM show. He really liked it, and after some tweaks, this final fine-tuned Bass version is now ready for the public. It's perfect for tweaking your bass amp's tone, anything from tightening up the attack a little to building a thick distortion for pick-driven metal bass lines.In addition to Greg, other artists using the Bass TightDrive include dUg Pinnick of King's X, and Sean Frankhouser, bassist with Bugs Henderson.

Bass TightDrive

Designed by iconic high-gain amp guru James Brown, the Tight Drive redefines the boundaries of the standard “overdrive” with enhanced tone sculpting and advanced tone stacks. The Tight Drive provides everything from a nuanced push to the front end of the amp all the way to heavy overdrive/distortion and all points in between. Exceptionally responsive and detailed, the Tight Drive comes with a built-in noise gate, three-way tone stack and controls for volume, tone, and gain.

Perfect in both size and function, the Tight Drive is a welcome addition to any pedalboard.
