Sun Beta Lead

Project overview

Inspired by Sunn Beta amplifiers series. Combining the best of the Lead and Bass versions at the flick of a switch.

Introduction

If you love nasty and gritty stoner grunge sludgy doom tones, the Sun Beta lead will nail all your dirty deeds!
Inspired by one of the most famous solid-state amps, this board combines the best of both versions bass and lead versions, just at the flick of a switch, making it suitable for standard tunings and lower sludgy dropped strings or bass!
This preamp is nothing related to anything you have seen before, presenting a unique design, tone, or functionality. Its EQ is super powerful and certainly doesn’t requires to have Tube Screamer in front of it to tighten up its tone. The magic of this amp is on its sludginess and grit. Why would you like to tighten up that?
But does it DOOOOOOM? for sure it does! Crank the drive at max and play some pentatonic glissandos on your drop-down favorite humbucker guitar. It will melt your face off into a sea of grungy sludginess doom.
