The Palisades is something we said we would never do… an overdrive based
on the legendary TS808! Gasp! After loads of requests we finally
buckled. We ran tests with every popular clone on the market as well as
several vintage originals, compared, contrasted and took loads of notes.
It was exhausting but informative. In the end, we threw it all away,
used our ears and came up with what we feel is the most versatile
relative of the 808 available today. With 6 different clipping voices, 5
bandwidth settings and 2 gain channels you will be hard-pressed to not
find a setting that will wipe every mid-boosting overdrive off your
board. The clipping voices determine how transparent and open or tight
and crunchy the distortion is. They will vary drastically depending on
where the gain is set, what channel is active and how much bandwidth is
being used. The bandwidth sets the frequency response of the distortion
and goes from thin, light and clean through fat heavy and crunchy. It
may very well be the single most important control the palisades has and
what really sets it apart. Gain A is a lower gain channel with a wider
range of grit that is great for strumming open chords. Gain B is a
higher gain channel with a tighter range that is great for palm muting
and/or shredding solos. The Palisades also has a foot switchable volume
boost with adjustable level to take it over the top when you want to
throw your foot up on the monitor and rip your sweet leads… or maybe
just push the front end of you amp a little harder. Not enough? How
about a normal/bright switch to mix and match the overall tone to
different amps and guitars. Still not enough? OK then, how about a
buffer on/off switch to tighten up the tone and make it sparkle when set
to "ON" or warm it up and make it sag when set to "OFF". The Palisades
is a versatile dude that will give you years of loving companionship.
Each Palisades is hand made one at a time in the tiny tree house
community of Akron, Ohio.
