Re-stocking soon

Here it is, the former VeJ, the number "1".

The VeJ1 is based on one of the most used solid-state amp, the Ampeg VH140c (Channel A). You get full control over your tone with a 3-band EQ and Gain/Volume knobs.

Real gritty death metal tone ahead, kinda "fuzz-a-like" with a nice gating. With an intense EQ leaning toward a HM-2 tone and a growly distortion, it's really a beast of its own. Start with the EQ maxed on all 3 bands and gain at half. With max gain and Treble, it starts to Fuzz and compress a lot.

Lower gain setting will work like a normal tube amp, as you raise the gain, depending on the instrument pickups output, you'll start to get that gating fuzz tone.

Power Consumption : 25mA

Voltage : 9Vdc Center Negative Only

Buffered design.

Totally Rips

Sounds massive, brings out exactly what I want in hardcore, thrash, and death metal tones. Build and finish gorgeous. Not noisy even when cranked

Great sound and great pedal High quality

Warm, dynamic, tube-like, sparkly: all words that DO NOT describe this pedal

Are you looking for a pedal with lots of tube-like warmth? Something that will give you a nice little dynamic crunch? Well kick rocks, wimp. This isn't it.

What is it? It's a perfect re-creation of a cold, dense, solid state behemoth with one goal in mind: chunky Neanderthal riffs. When used as a pre-amp, this pedal absolutely NAILS the sound of the extreme metal cult classic Ampeg VH140C. The mids control goes a long way to changing the voicing: all the way clockwise for something more modern sounding (still relatively scooped) or slam it counter-clockwise for that classic Suffocation or Internal Bleeding vibe.

Absolute beast!

I bought this to run through a 5 watt Kustom tube head, which only has a single volume knob. This pedal quickly impressed me! It's easy to dial in, and honestly sounds good no matter where you have the controls set. I paired it with a PdeQ, just to see, and the bottom end really came through without getting muddy. If I had to choose only one pedal to run for a metal gig, this would be it. If I could only choose two, I would add the PdeQ. Nothing else is needed
