The GRID SLAMMER is an overdrive pedal that delivers legendary gain and tone in the classic, guitar-centric mid frequency range. This clip showcases the soft clip and top-end sparkle with GAIN set moderately and TONE set above half way, adding to the shimmer. Here the LEVEL control serves as a balance of volume between pedal on/off... but LEVEL offers plenty of potential for smoldering and stinging gain by doing what it's name describes -- Slamming the Grid of the input preamp tube on your favorite tube amplifier.
