The quintessential ‘classic-rock-in-a-box’ guitar pedal, the Trashy Blonde is inspired
by tones reminiscent of classic British tube amplifiers and especially on the definitive
Marshall® amp sound, allowing you to drive any clean amplifier with controlled and
musical crunch. Trashy Blonde is a sexy British beauty that features a great deal
of classic rock with unquestionable control. Imagine you wanted some classic Brit
tones from your super clean jangly amp? Well she will turn any prancy little thing
into over-driven crunchy distorted badass. Roll her back with your guitar volume and
she cleans up very nicely. You may also want to mix it up with her mix knob, allowing
you to toggle through trebly distortion, to a more rounded vintage tone with plenty of
warmth.
Extremely versatile, you can get those JTM45 subtle break-up tones all the way
through to saturated JCM800 territory and then suddenly you’re feeling just like Slash
stepped in with his heels. Plus, the design allows mixing clean and distorted signals
with ease for a more vintage, well rounded and less saturated tone, to more classic
rock tones reminiscent of AC/DC and Led Zeppelin. The in-depth EQ settings lets
you to refine the sound to your exact preference, while the parametric filter and noise
gate assists in suppressing unwanted feedback, so that you’re always in control.
However, Trashy Blonde does have another ‘secret’ channel up her sleeve. By
cranking the Balance (output) knob on the clean channel, into a ‘just about to break
up’ amp will take you into boosted valve break up, step on the Trashy side and then
boom! You’re into full-on distortion nirvana.
Add a Stone Deaf EP-1 active expression pedal to the expression input control and on top of the impressive regular tone shaping features,
Trashy Blonde can also achieve wah, phaser and manual tonal shift sounds as well as the ability to control your drive tone on the fly with
your foot.
