{"product_id":"08-2800005502626","title":"USED EMPRESS EFFECTS \/ Heavy [08]","description":"A dual-channel high-gain distortion pedal that lets you explore a rich range of sound characters with complete freedom.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nEmpress Effects’ Heavy is a dual-channel high-gain distortion pedal offering a wide range of variations. With two controls—Weight and Low—you can shape the sound to produce a powerful low-end that delivers the heaviest distortion tones.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nFrom rock distortion to 1980s metal sounds and modern, heavy distortion for down-tuned guitars, this is a professional-grade tool that takes high-gain distortion to the extreme. While delivering raw, high-gain distortion, its high-quality design—a hallmark of Empress Effects—ensures a clear, singing high-end that stands out even in an ensemble.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt also features an excellent noise gate function that keeps the gaps between choppy riffs silent.\u003cbr\u003e \nheavy\u0026amp;heavier: Dual-channel high-gain distortion.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe Empress Heavy features two independent channels. While both channels are designed with the same tone profile, the “heavier” channel allows for higher-gain settings than the “heavy” channel.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nYou can intentionally make the voicings similar and use one channel as a booster for solo guitar, or use the “Mid Range Control” to vary the voicing of both channels and create distinct channel sounds, enabling a wide variety of sound-shaping possibilities.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe “Weight” control expands the low end.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nDesigned specifically for ground-shaking “low frequencies,” the “Weight” control is a secret weapon that delivers a tight, big-bottom sound. This low-end, unique to the Heavy, has broken new ground in loud distortion.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nFurthermore, the two-band EQ section for high and low frequencies, shared by both channels, allows for fine-tuning of the final output. Since you can tailor the tone to your specific amp and cabinet, you have complete control over the sound shaping of heavy, high-gain sounds.\u003cbr\u003e \nFeatures a 2-mode noise gate.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt features a built-in, high-performance noise gate unique to the Empress, with a switch to select between “Natural” and “Aggressive” modes. You’ll experience a noise gate with incredibly responsive tracking, even with intense high-gain tones.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition: B+: Some minor scratches, but no issues for normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: None\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, or other imperfections that are not clearly visible in the photos or not listed here.
