Description

The SansAmp Classic by Tech 21 is a highly versatile pedal designed to emulate the warm, rich tones of desirable tube amplifiers. Here are the technical specifications and features:

- Design: The SansAmp Classic is an all-analog pedal designed by B. Andrew Barta, featuring a bank of eight Character switches that adjust tonality, harmonics, and dynamics. It also includes a three-position Input switch offering a choice of pre-amp styles: Lead (Marshall®-style), Normal (Mesa Boogie®-style), and Bass (Fender®-style).

- Functionality: The pedal encompasses the entire signal chain, from pre-amp to power amp to speaker simulation, providing warm, natural tones. It features a flat output for maximum flexibility and control with external EQ. The pedal's knob controls shape pre-amp contours, power amp contours, volume, and final tone.

- Use-Cases: The SansAmp Classic is suitable for guitar and bass, offering a wide range of tonal options. It is also versatile enough to be used with other instruments such as keyboards, drums, sax, harmonica, and vocals, as well as in mixdowns to enhance existing tracks.

- Built-in Speaker/Cab Sim: The pedal includes a 100% analog SansAmp Tube Amplifier Emulation technology with a built-in speaker simulation tailored for a smooth, even response, similar to a multiply-miked cabinet.

- Power Requirements: The SansAmp Classic can be operated with a 9V alkaline battery or a 9V DC power supply with a minimum current draw of 100mA. The optional DC power supply is available from Tech 21 (model #DC9).

- Dimensions: The pedal measures 3.75″ x 4.75″ x 2″, making it compact and portable for various applications.

The SansAmp Classic is a timeless and essential tool for musicians, producers, and engineers seeking to achieve authentic tube amplifier tones in a convenient and compact unit.
