www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Blackstar HT-DistX will transform the most civilized valve amp into a fire-breathing, ultra high gain machine of filth and fury. Yeah, its that nasty. This pedal is specifically designed for modern guitarists that demand high gain voltage valve tones for extreme, progressive, and other heavy styles. With its design however, dynamics are present, and the distortion comes across as completely natural and organic with its ECC83/12AX7 valve. Do you need utter devastation in your tone while also needing maximum tonal shaping options? The Blackstar HT-DistX is the pedal for you. The level and gain work in conjunction to achieve the drive and volume necessary for your overdrive. The bass, middle, and treble knobs also act to supremely shape your sound. Scooped mids? You havent heard scooped mids until youve heard the Blackstar HT-DistXs scooped mids. Crank those mids, though, and sustaining, stinging leads are at your fingertips. The DistX also features Blackstars patent-applied-for ISF knob, or the Infinite Shape Feature. This knob when turned completely clockwise, will give you a characteristic UK distortion. Turned counter-clockwise, it will give you American tones. Dont be afraid to blend these, with just some fine adjustments. Now you see why the tonal options here are amazing. If youre seeking extreme levels of sonic mayhem, the Blackstar HT DistX is the pedal for you. - http://proguitarshop.com/store/distortion-pedals-blackstar-distortion-pedals-...

  • Love your guys gear reviews.....your page is my "go to" when I wanna check something out due to the completeness of your review and lack of self- serving wanking, you go through and show how the gear serves for rhythm and leads, single coils and humbuckers, and different styles, and know annoying pick on the string sounds, A+ sound quality, big kudos from a 20 year guitar veteran. Oh and this pedal kicks ass too.

  • @jsuffers - Thanks for the props! We appreciate your patronage.
