Built on the circuits of the B-Custom Super Sport and the Barber Burn Unit, the Five Watt World HG edition uses these circuits to celebrate a higher range of gain than the original Five Watt World BUSS.
Instantly switch between the sounds of modded Marshalls with a touch of cranked Vox, or choose higher gain Dumble tones, think “Talk to Your Daughter” era Robben Ford tone.
Key Features
- Two Overdrives In One Pedal – Use the left toggle to switch between overdrives. Switch left for the Super Sport mode, and right for authentic Dumble tone.
- Tactile Responsiveness – Even the smallest amount of adjustment to the controls will shape your tone in different ways, so you can carefully craft your dream sound.
- High Harmonics & Ultra Dynamics – Use the top right toggle switch to choose between two different EQ styles, to shape your tone even further.
Ultra Dynamics Switch
With the switch to the left you are in high harmonics mode. Along with the extra harmonics there is a certain amount of sponginess that comes with it that reminiscent of vintage amps. With the switch to the right you are in ultra dynamics mode. This is going to be a little bit louder, more open, and have lots of articulation. You will be surprised by how much string definition you can still get with higher levels of gain, particularly with your single coil guitars in this mode.
Volume Control
The volume control sets the output of the pedal. Most players find unity between 9 o’ clock and 1 o’ clock, depending on their pickup’s output and the guitar’s volume setting. Low output from the guitar requires a lower volume setting to achieve unity.
Tone Control
The Tone control is an adjustable high-end roll-off. A good starting point for balanced sound is 2-3 o’ clock for the Super Sport mode, and 12:30 to 1 o’ clock for the Burn Unit mode. Try rolling off your guitar’s tone knob to get fatter sounds, particularly in the ultra harmonics mode.
Drive Control
The Drive control sets the amount of sustain and gain. Practice balancing the amount of drive to the harmonics or dynamics setting you are using. You will get the most variety and value from the pedal by experimenting with each toggle setting and sweeping the drive through all of its range.
