Pete Cornish has taken two of his most popular effects units and combined them into the Cornish G-2/SS-3 Duplex, one case that is smaller than the combined area of the two individual items. From this single unit you can access many distinctly unique sounds with an almost infinite array of Tones and degrees of Sustain.
The Cornish G-2™ gives a higher level of overdrive for that classic cranked up Marshall sound found on most British rock records of the 70s (Led Zeppelin, Free, Bad Company etc.). The G-2™, with it's warm Germanium qualities and higher gain, starts at around the rhythmic crunch stage of the SS-3™ and continues through in controllable degrees to a rounded but dynamic lead. It features a four-stage overdriven discrete transistor circuit with additional Germanium components that generate much warmer sounding harmonics than any other distortion unit on the market. Within the huge sound created by this unit the original Guitar Tone and Dynamics are present, enhancing the musical expression of your performance.
The PETE CORNISH SS-3™ is great for crunchy rhythm and a nice thick bluesy lead. The sound is very much like an overdriven vintage valve amp. The SS-3™ is currently being used by Noel Gallagher of Oasis, and is also a firm favorite of David Gilmour of Pink Floyd and Lou Reed. It has the best bottom end retention ever heard in an effect, whilst the mid-range is sweet and very transparent. The SS-3™ retains all the tonal nuances of your guitar and will make it come alive. It is subtle and yet capable of amazing power and sustain. Using the SS-3™ with a clean amp it is possible to progress from subtle overdriven amp sounds, through rhythmic crunch, up to a blues' lead. The tonal characteristics and dynamics of the guitar are maintained even when using this pedal at its maximum gain.
