The Six of Swords
From thick, gated, dark, woolly, high gain, wall of sound fuzz to smooth,
punchy, glassy, low gain overdrive, and everything in between, The Six
of Swords covers more sonic territory than any other analog pedal
before. Lead or rhythm, Classic Rock or Hard Rock, Blues or Punk, this
pedal has got the tone you are looking for. With a beautiful array of in
between tones, the Six of Swords allows you to dial in the exact tone
you've always wanted from a stompbox, but have yet to find.
V = volume.
I = intensity. The Six of Swords was designed to use the guitar's
volume knob as the actual "drive" knob. The intensity knob changes
characteristics like pick attack, compression, sustain, and saturation from
a low gain distortion to a high gain distortion.
X = texture. Turning this knob clockwise adds hair to the notes and
intermodulation to the sustain. Turning it counter clockwise smooths out
the notes and removes intermodulation from the sustain without robbing
the distortion of gain or saturation.
B & T = bass & treble. The Six of Swords has a powerful 2 band EQ that
not only cuts or boosts bass & treble, but can also dial out or accentuate
mids, and change the focus of the voicing from loose fuzzy tones to tight
distortion tones.
This is our contribution to the world of distortion FX. The Six of Swords.
We hope it will help you as you row across the sorrowful sea of endless
dirt boxes and bring your journey to an end.

| Here's a vid clip that was recorded straight into the camera. Yes, we know the sound quality is horrible, but this clip isn't intended to "sound good". It's intended to show just how vast the tonal range on the Six of Swords is. Keep in mind that the other two famous pedal sounds bad too. Check out the other clips if you want to hear how good the pedal can sound |
