Overdrive, distortion & fuzz effect pedal

Available in a limited edition of 350 in a special finish, theEMPRESS EFFECTS Limited Edition Heavy Menace is an evolution of the Empress Heavy. It's probably one of the most versatile high-end pedals if you're looking for high-gain saturation. From 70's hard rock to today's metal, you'll find the sound you've been looking for.
A third Lite mode joins the previous Heavy and Heavier modes for more . The three-band EQ features an adjustable midrange frequency, and the Weight setting adjusts the low-frequency response for thick full chords or precise palm mutes. A noise gate with level control and dedicated switch completes the picture.

Très bonne pédale, très complète, je peux jouer du rock classique comme du métal, et le paramétrage EQ est assez fin pour sculpter le son. J'ai rajouté un compresseur devant pour plus de bonheur, mais à part ça elle se suffit à elle-même.
J'apprécie le noise gate qui ne coupe pas trop vite le son quand il décroit, et le fait qu'elle prenne 9V ou 12V en alimentation est pratique quand on a un power supply limité en nombre de sorties disponibles.
Bref, excellente acquisition !
