WARP X - MANUAL
T T H H E E T T O O N N E E
21st century metal is all about detuned guitars,
ponderous & ominous riffs, and big & bold effected
clean sounds. No wonder that yesteryear's amplification
can't cut it in this brave new world of sound.
Make no mistake; the WARP X™ is the ultimate tube-
driven weapon in your nu metal arsenal. With the WARP
X™, you have satisfied your wish for more bottom end
beef and all but inexhaustible high-gain reserves.
Sporting four 6L6 tubes, the head pumps into the cabinet
a heavy helping of oomph, giving you punch unmatched
in this class. You'll revel in your newfound ability to cut
through the din. But even an opus played at warp speed
soon becomes boring without a little tension and release
to spice things up. The WARP X™ also delivers the kind
of crisp, crystal-clear clean tone you need to heighten
the musical drama and go from overtures of glassy,
glossy arpeggios to infernal finales of paint-peeling fury.
