Pathos Distortion

The only distortion pedal you'll ever need?

It's possible this is the one distortion pedal. It has the design pedigree, as it is a Wampler pedal. It has been engineered to provide subtle distortion for classic rock and jazz, or so much gain you hear a heavy metal note before your finger touches a string anywhere. It's the range of distortion that makes me think this is the only one to get. It can do prog metal. It can chug. It can melt your face. It's endless distortion from a tap. I trust other pedal brands. But there's no need to collect pedals for this particular heavy sound. This is the one.

10/10 and versatile

It sounds fantastic on its own and fits in well with my current board. The distortion is easily dialed in. I felt it was easy to get a gritty old school distortion as well as get a more modern metal tone. Pushing the distortion knob to the higher end gives it an almost digital sound. It sounds like the Archtype: Abasi sound but still feels like a pedal. I love it. Was unsure about it for 30 seconds when I tried it first. Definitely my favorite pedal at the moment. The EQ is also phenomenal and the range is perfect.

worth it

very good
