The Rocktron Austin Gold Overdrive pedal will breathe new life into your amplifier! Inside the eye-catching gold case is an awesome blend of light overdrive that enhances, without altering the sound of your favorite amp. This baby can add up to 30dB more gain to your signal.

 

The unique "Pre-Bass" control allows you to cut the pre-distortion low frequency information, eliminating too much "fuzzy" bass. It also allows you to increase the pre-distortion frequencies when the tone is too weak or thin. This Pre-Bass control gives you the freedom to exploit many overdrive textures. It's almost like having an entire arsenal of various overdrive pedals in one, by simply adjusting one control!

 

The Austin Gold does NOT overprocess, but instead will add an entirely new dimension to your amp. With its simple control layout you are up and running in no time. The Level control adjusts the overall output level of the Austin Gold. The Drive control adjusts the gain level applied to the input signal. An LED indicates when the Drive is active. Then use the Pre-Bass control already mentioned to really get your sound cooking.

 

Rough, Tough and Rugged,

 

Just like all the pedals in the Rocktron line, the Austin Gold is road-ready in an extruded aluminum chassis. Britain’s Guitar Magazine wrote: "If you find that some overdrives change your core amp tone too dramatically, the Austin Gold could be the answer. The basic Drive and Level controls together produce anything from nil coloration to plenty of mushy-ish crunch. The Pre-Bass control adds or removes quite a wide sounding frequency range but, like the pedal in general, it's subtle and highly usable.

 

There's a lot of level boost but the maximum amount is created with the Drive full up, so it's pretty crunchy too. Used with a clean amp this pedal creates a fine crunch channel, or adds squash to an already distorted amp.The Austin gold really complements your sound, rather than adding a dramatically different color. Tasteful!"
