One Control Sonic Blue Twanger

If you've heard or played a Vibrolux that's starting to get dirty - there you have the Sonic Blue Twanger.

• Can be used as a booster or OD
• Rhythm/Lead switch that sets the gain level
• Perfect if you want to simulate acoustic guitar on an electric guitar - the tone control sets the tonal balance
• Can achieve the classic Blackface sound on most amplifiers

This is what One Control says about Sonic Blue Twanger:

The Sonic Blue Twanger is another in the line of 'Amp in a Box' designs by Bjorn Juhl, meant to model the sounds of that other company's 'blackface' era.

It can be used as a preamp, booster and distortion pedal and will give your rhythm guitars an edge, and your lead guitars that limiting distortion effect of those 'blackface' amps run flat out….. So whether you use backline for your live shows or just want that classic 'blackface' tone available; regardless of which amp you use, the Sonic Blue Twanger is the only fx pedal on the market to satisfy your need.

As with many of the BJF designed pedals from One Control, the Sonic Blue Twanger is compact with 4 simple controls. The Treble control is really a tone balance (like on the original amplifiers) which increases and decreases a 'shelved' EQ setting. Volume and Master controls work as pre and post volumes allowing you to vary the amount of clean headroom and distortion in the signal. Finally, on the side of the pedal is a Rhythm/Lead switch. In Rhythm mode, the pedal provides about 18dB of gain (-80dB noise level), and in Lead, about 40dB of gain (-74 dB noise level).

Whether you are using the Sonic Blue Twanger as a preamp with any of the other BJF overdrive or distortion pedals, or as a stand-alone effect to achieve a more American sound, the Sonic Blue Twanger will take you back to the 'blackface' days at almost any volume!
