What’s so special about the design of the

WARP 7™ circuitry?

Well, there are two new wrinkles particularly worth

noting:

1) The preamp is optimized for the signal and

frequency response of detuned guitars. The

WARP 7™ just starts to unleash the brunt of its

sonic fury at frequencies other amps can’t even

begin to render. This big bad beast likes the

taste of detuned riffs best, so be sure to feed it

regularly!

2) WARP 7™ sports two channels that are, sonically

speaking, polar opposites: ultra clean vs.

roaring high gain tone. And that calls for closer

examination:

CLEAN:

The CLEAN channel delivers razor-sharp tone

piercing enough to stop a charging rhino in its

tracks at a hundred paces. The signal remains

distortion-free even at a very high volume. Not

until the Volume knob is cranked to the hilt will the

amp begin to bare its teeth with a hint of snarl.

Nice but nasty are the adjectives that come to

mind.

Now what’s so remarkable about that? In a

nutshell, you can lather the wildest and weirdest

effects on your guitar signal and it will still cut

through loud and clear, with enough punch to put

the rest of the band’s instruments in their place.

Say goodbye and good riddance to those wimpy,

washed-out sounds. Now you can play with the

big boys’ toys - hip vibe, roto and tremolo effects

of the variety used by the headlining acts - and

still be heard at denture-rattling volume levels.

WARP:

CAUTION! This is the WARP 7™’s sonic heart of

darkness. This channel offers the kind of earsplitting

high gain sound that you have come to know and

love from your fave CDs. Its distortion can be best

be described as a throaty rumble - picture a

genetically engineered, steroid-addled lion with

an attitude problem. Depending on the setting, it

delivers a nasty nu metal thump, post-grunge

growl, alternative snarl or the doomsday thunder

so cherished by devotees of death and Goth

metal. The Presence knob tweaks the upper mids

to suit each genre. Case in point: Gain all the way

up, Bass cranked, Mid and High to 12 o'clock

positions, Presence to 11 o'clock – presto, there’s

that trademark "Bizkit" sound. Now you have some

idea of what the WARP 7™ is able to deliver in

terms of tone. But there’s more to it than that -

you’ll find truckloads of our trademark Technology

of Tone in the various connectors, buttons and

knobs as well. And that’s our cue to look at these

in detail:
