Manufacturer's Description for Hughes and Kettner Warp Factor Distortion Pedal

Ultra low, ultra bad and fulminating with explosive energy -- that's the formula for 21st century guitar tone. An unprecedented sound, conventional rock 'n' roll amps don't have what it takes to deliver it. Now finally there's a solution -- the Warp Factor -- the first stomp box that injects Nu Metal energy into every amp.

The Warp Factor's special circuitry generates the kind of fierce distortion and dark, heavy chunk that powers modern metal styles. Simply insert it between your guitar and your amp's clean channel, drop your axe's tuning, and stand back 'cause a mammoth metal sound is about to bowl you over! That sought-after drop-D sound is the product of highly charged, low-frequency energy that no battery-powered circuit can deliver. That's why the Warp Factor gets its juice from a wall wart.

The Warp effect's EQ characteristics, gain and output level are separately variable; a selector (sub) adjusts the sound to suit combos and 4 x 12 in. stacks.

The Warp Factor turns every amp into a merciless Nu Metal monster! zZounds is an authorized dealer of Hughes & Kettner products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "I love it."
Sound: I own a Flying V with Duncan Distortion pickups and a Peavey Audition (small practice amp). It has a great pre-amp sound but switching between clean and overdrive was a pain. I was jamming in a local music shop enjoying a full selection of badass amps that were at my disposal, the rep from Hughes and Kettner showed up while I was playing and asked me if I had ever tried the Warp Factor pedal. I told him no, and he hooked it up. I was impressed, so much so that I bought the unit right then. When I took it home and ran it through my Peavey I was even more impressed. This unit has a great sound. It’s a must for the metal rocker. Two thumbs up!!! Feature: It only comes with an AC power unit, battery back-up would be nice. Ease of Use: The features are simple to use. Quality: Very well made, flat and sturdy. Value: It is not as pricey as some other units but it sure does deliver the sound. Manufacturer Support: Never needed it The Wow Factor: It has a futuristic look, my Stargate friends wondered when it would send us through the wormhole! LOL Overall: As a musician ONE product will NEVER meet my needs, (one can never have too many toys. This is however a great unit, and if it were broke or stolen I would most likely buy a new one.

"WarlockSlayer666"
Sound: sound is kick ass. if you like the heavy stuff...this is for you. incredible sound quality especially if you kick the warp up. With it down it sounds muffly. up it sounds crisp and clear. for an experienced guitarist, the high ended distortion is the key. This has got it. this petal has studio quality sound with the right guitar pickups. i have a bc rich warlock with bdsm pickups. nice. id kick the warp up to about a 3 oclock setting gives it a crisp clean sound with a little juice. especially when u hit the bass booster button. heavy stuff. Feature: not much features besides the gain, warp, volume, and the bass booster which is great for heavy guitaring. one problem of the warp factor is the stomp eventually gets warn out and takes a few tries to stomp it on. plus its flat and wide so it wont tip over when u go to stomp as with the square petals. Quality: like i said the stomp wears out a little bit. everything else is great. dont spill anything on it of course. ive had if for about a year constant use no stopping. great sound. nothing slowly breaking besides the stomp. easy to fix. Value: i got it for 100 its now 50 or lower. great price. other petals are 30 dollars but crap. this is killer for distortion. Manufacturer Support: never needed to call. The Wow Factor: sleek look. simple but awsome. Overall: buy this please. you wont regret it.
