Rockett : 10 TON HAMMER (MM Axis to 6L6’s)

The 10 Ton Hammer pulls no punches: all it wants to be is an 80’s Metal pedal. And it sure delivers. The 10TH is an unabashed high-gain pedal so winding the gain back will only slightly reduce its lava spurting attack but probably just enough to call it a blues pedal. Of course, it WANTS to be at noon or above for all the whisky action. It’s a lot of fun to put it mildly.
