Guitar stompbox Thunder ONE Overdrive provides powerful distortion effect ready to cover various music genres.
Thunder ONE has two types of distortion modes: DRIVE and CRUNCH switchable by the footswitch. Both modes share sound controls named TONE, BODY and VOLUME.
Mode CRUNCH is a good choice for "kicking off" the valve amplifiers with low distortion,
or is suitable for low distortion genres like a blues/jazz.
Mode DRIVE has a plenty of distortion, so its absolutely great choice to use it with amps with clean channel only. As a matter of course, Thunder ONE can be easily left out from the sound path just with one push of a True Bypass footswitch. The output of Thunder ONE is powerful enough even to excite the final amplifier.
Thunder ONE can be powered by a standard 9V battery, or 9V adapter.
The device has a very low power consumption, so the battery lasts long before the replacement.
Turning on is done by plugging the guitar signal cable to the IN connector.

HOW DOES IT SOUND?
Sound samples were recorded with Thunder ONE Overdrive and if its not mentioned otherwise, it is guaranteed that the samples were not edited/effected in any kind of way.
Clean reacts proportionally to the player’s dynamics and smoothly adds a soft distortion when hitting the strings harder.
Max setting of GAIN could be used by blues or hard-rock players.
Distorted sound covers all of the "hard" generes without any doubts. GAIN was set to max. during the sample recording.
