DID YOU KNOW?
The first distorted guitar tones ever commited to a recorded medium
were caused by broken amplifiers. It’s kind of a thing now.
PRO TIPS:
MAL and FUNCTION are extremely interdependent. Crank them up, then dial
backwards for different sonic textures from clean gain to sub octave fuzz.
Use the Tone control for a brighter distortion or a muddy synth style.
Unsure where to start? Turn every knob all the way to the right like the pros!
Use a quality PSU or a 9v battery for best results

FROM PREVIOUS RUN:
"If it ain't broke ... buy a BROKEN AMP SIMULATOR"
Ever since the tune "Rocket 88" hit the airwaves, guitar players have looked for ways to capitalize on their malfunctioning equipment. Overdrive, distortion, fuzz, sub octave - all of these sounds came from equipment that was behaving, well... poorly! Nowadays, the sound of distortion is as common as a cold, but we don't necessarily want our expensive and otherwise reliable equipment to catch it.
That's where Captain Jake's Broken Amp Simulator comes in - a bona fide speaker rippin', tube slippin contortioner of distortion. The B.A.S. features five knobs to tweak the sounds of old-school boosts, 60's fuzzes, high gain distortion and noisy sub-octave bit crushing sounds.
Only a few left out of the current run of 49 units!
