This is a left-over no frills take from the sessions I recorded for the very capable Seymour Duncan Palladium. The pedal is a piece of distortion mastery in my opinion. Watch the knob tweakage to see what it can do. A more explanatory video can be viewed on my channel at https://youtu.be/JLFOLusTwPw

The Seymour Duncan Palladium Gain Stage has been around a year or so now and plenty has been written and said about it. So I've decided to just play the pedal, in context, over a backing track that's not too intrusive, so you can hear what it's capable of with the particular guitar I've chosen.

"The Palladium Gain Stage effects pedal is the first stompbox that actually captures the feel and responsiveness of a high gain tube amp. ...By focusing beyond just the tonal characteristics of Palladium, we designed an innovative architecture that captures the full-bodied depth and character previously unattainable in an effects pedal."
