Black Gold (Distortion/Overdrive/Fuzz)
The SABBADIUS Black Gold is a very versatile analog Distortion pedal that goes from a
Booster passes through that sound so named lately as “Glassy” Tones to a warm Overd rive going also through a soft Clipping Distortion to a HARD Distortion until reaching the sound of a Fuzz with a lot of Sustain.
The SABBADIUS Black Gold “Versatile Distortion” is inspired by the famous ProCo RAT
and uses the OP07 or LM308 integrated circuit just like the old 80s and 90s version of the mentioned pedal. However, it is worth clarifying that the SABBADIUS Black Gold is not a copy of the RAT since they have some modifications made in the tone and Distortion control, thus making this pedal even more versatile.
The controls are 3:
VOLUME: Controls the Output Volume of the effect.
DRIVE: With this control, you give the amount of Drive (Saturation) to the effect which makes it one of the main versatile characteristics of this pedal. From Min. To Max. You go through a lot of sound and color changes, sustain, and aggressiveness.
TONE: This controls the tone of the effect that tints from the lowest and warmest tones to the most screeching and glassy tones that mix with the DRIVE knob you can obtain incredible results.
