ProCo SOLO Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal

Although it is housed in the same indestructible and road-worthy steel enclosure that's come to be a trademark of ProCo stompboxes, the SOLO distortion guitar effects pedal marks a departure from the RAT series of pedals in more ways than just its cosmetics. With its enormous range of tones, 3-way selectable clipping modes (Hot, Melt, Burn), and highly interactive Scoop and Tone controls, the SOLO just might be the most versatile pedal in your arsenal.<br><br>The ProCo SOLO distortion pedal is equally at ease in both lead and rhythm capacities, and with a wide variety of amplifiers and guitars. Capable of going from vibey, chewy, warm low-gain tones to deliciously mean and crushing high-gain tones, the ProCo SOLO pedal still remains remarkably true to the sound that matters most: the sound of you and your guitar. And speaking of staying true to the sound of your guitar, true-bypass switching ensures that when the guitar pedal is off, there is no coloration of your sound. <br><br>Even in its highest gain settings, the SOLO remains extremely tube-like, articulate and touch sensitive. Complex chords ring out with clarity, leads sustain with ease. Roll back your volume knob and it cleans up, just like a good tube amp would. <br><br>The SOLO effects pedal uses three pairs of carefully matched (or should we say, carefully mismatched) clipping diodes to produce asymmetrical clipping. The three pairs are accessible via the Hot/Melt/Burn slider switch. This has the effect of making the SOLO clip very much like a tube amp going into natural power tube distortion. <br><br>ProCo Sound has been building professional effects since 1979. Since then, the RAT has evolved from a single, hand-built prototype into a family of versatile distortion pedals.
