VeJ1 - Ze Beet - Ampeg VH140C Metal Preamp

Great product

This thing sounds cool on its own, but really shines with a ge-7 boss eq up front. Gradually becoming essential o think. I love the art and the feel of the pedal, super chunky feeling clicks and rock solod build. Bravo, i love your work!

Different but good

It's kind of like the custom side of a Boss Metalzone waza but warmer and not as tight, but that's not a bad thing. Not every pedal needs to sound exactly the same. I've never used the Amp it's modeled on so I have no comparative frame of reference, but it's a solid distortion pedal for metal, and the eq makes it worth it, overall it's a pretty unique pedal

classic Dying Fetus tone

Took me a minute to figure how to get the tone I wanted from this box, but now it's my favourite drive/distortion for brutal metal. The breakthrough was to slam a tube screamer or something else in front to boost it hard. An EQ afterwards helps to add in some treble, the VH140c circuit is quite dark overall. Gives the classic 90s solid state DM tone like on Dying Fetus "grotesque impalement". Love it \m/
