Let’s cut to the chase – this ain’t no half-pint clean boost. This is downright-outrageous distortion in all its saturated glory! Three modes, three controls and a whole lot of noise – say hello to the Whiskey Chaser.

High-gain Distortion

The Whiskey Chaser isn’t for the faint-hearted. It offers three distinct distortion modes, each with a unique flavour:

  • Hooch – natural distortion tone, like an overdriven vintage tube amp.
  • Bourbon – more modern, high-gain distortion, with tight low end and beefy mids.
  • Scotch – classic well-defined, vintage-sounding high-gain distortion

The tone control adjusts the shape of the midrange – dial it back for scooped saturation or crank it for midrange mayhem. The distortion control has heaps of gain on tap, giving you everything from soaring rock leads to crushing modern metal riffs. Approach with caution!

Specifications

  • True bypass
  • Controls: level, tone, distortion
  • Modes: Hooch, Bourbon, Scotch
  • Input Impedance: 1M Ohms
  • Output Impedance: 470 Ohm

Distortion Pedals

Distortion clips the waveform more firmly than overdrive, generating dense upper harmonics, longer sustain and a more compressed response. Circuit topology and filtering decide whether the sound is tight and focused, broad and aggressive, smooth or deliberately abrasive. Gain sets the amount of clipping, while pre- and post-distortion tone controls strongly influence low-end definition, midrange presence and high-frequency texture.

Battery Powered

Can operate from an internal replaceable battery, usually with different available current and running time from an external supply. Battery chemistry, access and automatic disconnection through the input socket affect practical runtime and storage. High-current digital processing generally shortens battery life more sharply than a simple analogue circuit.

True Bypass

Connects input directly to output through mechanical or relay switching when the effect is off, removing the active circuit from the audio path. It avoids buffer colour but leaves cable capacitance and switching design to influence high-frequency loss and possible switching noise.
