ABOUT THE PRODUCT

When creating the AMT SS-11A we were guided by the motto — minimum size with maximum functionality for full tube overdrive with the highest quality components. 

► DIFFERENT BETWEEN THE SS-11B AND SS-20

The SS-11B is a brother to the SS-20, but designed to be different.

While the SS-20 is the more aggressive «METAL» pedal, the SS-11B was intended and manufactured for that famous classic tube driven over saturated guitar tone that everyone loves and craves.

► DIFFERENT BETWEEN THE SS-11B AND SS-11A

The gain circuitry of the SS-11A LEAD channel is slightly less aggressive than the SS-11B while the Clean and Crunch channels are the same.

The SS-11A Classic version is designed to cover all the classic jazzy, overdrive, and rock sounds of vintage tube amplifiers.

The SS-11B Modern version is designed to cover the sounds of today's high-gain tube amplifiers. Offering more distortion than the SS-11A, the SS-11B is a rock-metal monster! The tone of the SS-11B (Modern) works perfectly for heavy riffing, drop tuned guitars, 7 strings, and screaming lead work.

► FEATURES

• «Bright» switch for Crunch channel.
  
• Updated Clean channel EQ for better sound quality of standard and drop tunings.
• Fully tube-based 4-stage overdrive channel with DUAL TUBE design (2x12AX7) with high-voltage anode voltage (+300 V).
• Three separate channels: CLEAN / OVERDRIVE / LEAD
• Individual gain sensitivity and output level controls for clean and crunch/lead channels.
• TREBLE SHIFT toggle switch to enter bright mode for that added punch of high end.
• FX LOOP for external effects.
• OUTPUT jack for connecting to both specialized guitar amplifiers with a standard level of 0 dB (GUITAR AMP mode) and a CAB SIM MIXER out with a standard level of -10dB and a guitar cabinet simulation.
• The preamp outputs are equipped with sophisticated solid-state buffers.
• The SS-11 incorporates new field-effect transistor-based guitar cabinet impulse response emulator processing. Improved naturalness of sound when connected to line input.
• Special attention was paid to transistors anode power quality: preamp uses a specially designed high-voltage transformer, minimizing the penetration of impulse noises into the amplified signal.
• Single 2-color LED.

► DESCRIPTION OF THE SS-11 CHANNELS

LEAD channel provides a thick, viscous sound for playing both chunky rhythm parts and singing solos with excellent presence. TREBLE SHIFT toggle to take your lead sound into bright mode, similar to the good old «Treble Booster» pedals in the 80's that guitarists used to enhance their solos.

OVERDRIVE channel features a more open structure of the sound. This is the SS-11's sweet spot! VERY tubey and saturated sounding, much like that of the classic tube amps of the 70's and 80's! A wide range of sensitivity adjustment results in the sound starting from light crunch to thick and bright lead channel-like sound. Natural tube tone. If you're looking for something other than that dull sounding solid-state OD or TS clone sound, then THIS IS IT.

CLEAN channel focuses on crystal clarity clean sound. Low, Mid, and High controls are for tweaking your sound as well as TREBLE SHIFT is toggle for adjusting high-end response.
