What other meal is easier to make for a hungry gal or guy than a nice, fat sandwich? Now, this post has absolutely nothing to do with food and has no
relation to culinary inventions rather the butt-kicking new Way Huge Fat Sandwich Distortion Pedal from Dunlop. Apparently somebody told Jim Dunlop that it was time to rethink the way pedals are built and that idea was acted upon in a remarkable way. If you think about it, many guitar effects pedals do exactly what they are supposed to do without fuss but are they versatile? Honestly, I have not seen many pedals as versatile as this with the exception of some very expensive boutique-type pedals. This pedal comes in at just below $180 so you definitely won’t break the bank to get unequalled tone and versatility.
The features and controls of this box are killer. On the front panel you see the main controls such as Volume, Distortion and tone and I’m sure you can guess what they do. Below those knobs you also see some smaller controls which effectively control the presence (high frequency response) and the resonance (the low frequency response or tightness). Besides the main controls on the front, there are also some tweak friendly knobs inside the case which are intended to customize the distortion and tone for your individual style preference. Under the hood you find a curve control which affects corner frequencies of the 1st stage of the distortion, Curve which adjusts the gain in the 2nd stage of distortion and the Highs control to modify the high frequencies of the distortion. This pedal is total tonal versatility at its finest from your friends at Dunlop.
