DigiTech®/DOD® is providing plenty of distortion ammo with the re-release of the Gunslinger MOSFET Distortion. Boasting bold, tube-like tone and unmatched sustain, this is the loud, aggressive distortion pedal that players have had in their sights – and at a price that can’t be beat!
The Gunslinger is designed to help clean combo amps sound more like a modded British-style amp. The Gunslinger features a robust, brushed-metal chassis making the pedal look as bold as it sounds, a crisp blue LED power indicator, and four independent control knobs providing a wide range of sonic possibilities: GAIN adjusts the amount of gain being applied to the signal; LEVEL allows the user to adjust output level. The active EQ section allows LOW boosts or cuts low frequencies from bone-rattling low end sounds to a more cleaned-up midrange tone; HIGH lets the player boost or cut the treble. Aside from massive amounts of output and a variety of gain options, the Gunslinger makes it even easier to stay on target with a choice of 9 or 12V operation.
As a MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) device, the DOD Gunslinger is able to effectively emulate those highly sought-after valve sounds, enhancing the player’s harmonic dynamics, much as the preamp tubes in an old-school guitar amp. This results in unparalleled touch sensitivity, saturation, and string-separation. Since the Gunslinger is so responsive to the dynamics and style of playing, the distortion will become more aggressive the harder a player attack the strings and will “clean up” nicely and become less distorted when played lightly.
The Gunslinger’s true bypass circuitry ensures that tone remains unspoiled even when the unit is off and its modern 9V DC power supply input and compact footprint (4.68” x 2.63” x 2.25”) makes it ideally suited to any pedalboard.
Whether aiming for big, crunchy chords or lightning-fast lead lines, the DOD Gunslinger always hits the mark.
