1.0 CHANNELS
The EDITION BLONDE features a newly developed
preamp that not only produces authentic harmonic
overdrive but also responds dynamically to your
picking style. Based on semiconductors, this innova-
tive circuitry simulates the sound-shaping elements
of tube amps and delivers sound quality unparalleled
in this price range. It also provides the dynamics
demanding guitarists require for musical expression.
CLEAN:
Depending on the preamp control settings, the EDI-
TION BLONDE delivers a variety of contemporary
and vintage clean tones. At higher VOLUME settings,
the "SoftClick" circuitry delivers that slight edge you
would expect from a vintage tube amp. If desired,
the CLEAN channel can put out plenty of crunch.
LEAD:
This channel delivers direct, in-your-face classic rock
sounds with a very British feel. The MID control is a
very effective sound-shaping tool; it lets you dial in
many different lead sounds.
REVERB:
In the signal chain, the EDITION BLONDE reverb
section is located after the FX loop so you can use it
for external effects and still achieve a clean reverb
sound. Additionally, the reverb level automatically
adjusts its own level when you switch between
channels, more for clean, less for lead.
