SNK PEDALS VHD PRE
 |
| $225.00 USD |
SNK has come to the rescue with the SNK. The amp is solid state and a pedal is solid state by nature so getting good replica is reasonable goal. The layout is simple enough with volume, high, mid and lows. The mids have a very healthy cut and boost.
CONCLUSION
The box is lot bigger then what most players want. To be fair there is a lot of old tech in the original and the parts were easily 4 times larger than a modern equivalent.
SNK say they just took the original dirt pre from the original amp and duplicated it. It is definitely in the 'Chainsaw' pool with all the Boss Metal offerings and the many hot rodded equivalents. I tried the obvious but only kept my Boss Metal Zone. I play a Prog Metal style that these pedals are a small part of that. In fact all the sounds I use play equal but a small part. I am damn fussy though. I actually find most Metal Fuzz, Distortions and OD's not fat or punchy enough. I have a trio and as such I can use a lot more lows than a larger band.
I am general impressed with this pedal. It is both Brutal and balzy. The price is reasonable especially since a lot of the serious competition is easily a third more.
VERDICT
With 82 pedals on my board and 2 more coming. I use a lot of pedals! I also use everyone on every gig to cover just 25 tunes.
Before C19 I had it at a manageable 70 LOL. I would love to get back there. LOL I at least give my purchases a very serious thought. At minimum what I buy now MUST bump a pedal off my board.
