| DigiTech announces the introduction of five new distortion pedals: the Bad Monkey; the Screamin' Blues; the Hot Head; the Grunge; and the Death Metal. Designed to provide guitarists with a wide range of overdrive and distortion options, these new pedals feature DigiTech's analog circuitry and offer sounds ranging from smooth, classic overdrive to the deepest, darkest metal.
Each pedal is housed in a rugged cast-metal enclosure, features a non-slip rubber base, and is designed to withstand rigorous use. All models feature a standard amp output and a mixer output with cabinet modeling so the user can plug directly into front-of-house boards and recording consoles. All pedals are each powered by a 9 Volt battery and include a battery life LED indicator. Bad Monkey is an overdrive pedal that produces the smooth natural character of an overdriven tube amp while maintaining the guitar's distinct tone. Low and High tone controls provide the flexibility to boost or cut bass and treble frequencies. Screamin' Blues is designed for the guitarist who needs an overdrive/distortion pedal that responds to playing dynamics. Playing lightly gives a mild overdrive, while dialing up the gain and playing harder makes the Screamin' Blues sing with rich harmonics and sustain. Hot Head is a multi-purpose pedal for any style of music where distortion is needed. Featuring flexible Low, High, and Gain controls, the Hot Head pedal can provide tones that range from little distortion to a full stack. Already having legendary status, Grunge provides a wide palette of distortions ranging from chunky rhythm to heavy grind. The Grunge is aiming at the guitarist playing stunning, sustaining leads. Death Metal is designed to be the most extreme, yet musical distortion pedal device to date. Featuring extreme gain, Death Metal comes with Level, Low, Mid, and High controls providing flexible tone shaping guaranteeing the guitar to cut through the mix. |
