The Robert Keeley Filaments High Gain Distortion pedal can make your amp sound like a fire-breathing monster. The Filaments can cover a range of tones thanks to its wide gain spectrum.

Controls

The 4 EQ knobs (Presence, Bass, Body and Treble) lets you dial in the perfect sound. Turning up the bass and body will add more low-end to your tone, so if you’re running the pedal into a small amp then the Filaments can compensate.

Cranking the treble and presence controls adds clarity and definition, letting your guitar be heard in even the most frantic of mixes. The Bright switch also increases the amount of top-end in your signal and is another flexible option. You can add more gain and compression with the Boost and Crunch switches, letting you further adjust and harness the sound in your head.

Amp-like Tones

The Filaments’ three gain stages replicate that sought-after high gain tube amp sound, producing plenty of dynamism and character. Some digital distortion units can sound harsh or unnatural, which is why Keeley used analogue circuitry for the Filaments, providing a more genuine tone.

Low-end cab thump can be obtained with the Bass and Body controls, letting you add valve amp punch. You can further change the pedal’s sound thanks to its variable 9-18V DC. Running it maxed out will give you a more open sound with higher headroom, transforming it into a full 100W stack in a small pedal format.

Distortion Pedals

Distortion pedals create a heavier, more aggressive gain sound than most overdrive pedals, giving guitarists the sustain, bite and saturation needed for rock, punk, metal and hard-hitting lead tones. They can turn a clean amp into a high-gain platform or add an extra layer of intensity to an already driven sound.

Some distortion pedals are tight and modern, while others are raw, fizzy or vintage-inspired. Choosing the right one depends on whether you want chunky rhythm tones, singing sustain, scooped metal sounds or a classic hard-rock voice with plenty of attack.

Distortion

Distortion pedals and related effects are commonly used by guitarists looking to shape their tone in a more focused and creative way. Different designs offer their own response, feel and tonal character depending on the style of music and the type of amplifier or guitar being used.

Many players build pedalboards gradually over time, combining different effects and utilities to create a setup that suits their own sound and workflow. Distortion related gear can play an important role in both live performance and studio recording.
