Tech21 SansAmp TRI-A.C. Triple Channel Overdrive Pedal
SansAmp TRI-A.C. is a 3-channel programmable stomp box with three independent footswitches. It combines the warmth of a 100% analog signal path with the convenience of digital programmability.
Feature:
The 9v bolt is easy to install and you'll get a hundred hours out of it if you unplug when you're done playing.
Quality:
Well built. Dependable.
Value:
Well worth the money. Add a power engine for under $399 and you are in business. To all tube snobs: I just dumped three 60s Fenders and I play, out, exclusively with this pedal and two power engines and the sound is excellent.
Sound:
This pedal is excellent when you play it through a Trademark 60 Power Engine, which has the type of full range speaker and flat response that brings out the full potential of the pedal. It is easy to use and when played through the right amp/speaker, it sounds very much like the amps it tries to emulate. You must get to know it though. Spend time messing with the knobs and you will get the sound you seek. Keith, Hendrix, Page, Santana, they're all in there, but if you're looking for Tube Screamer simplicity/instant gratification, move on.
Support:
Tech 21 and their man Lloyd are very friendly and their communication is excellent.
Overall:
I will probably be satisfied with it unless Tech 21 makes something even better. Then I'll buy that.
