D'Lite™ "44" GTO™- Convertible between 22 Watts of 6V6 Power OR 44 Watts of 6L6 Power. Inspired by the elusive tone characterized as fat and smooth, with a nice bite to the top, tightly stacked harmonics, and thick lower mids and bottom. The D'Lite44 GTO is designed to deliver a tight, high-headroom clean tone and a smooth, liquid lead tone. It also delivers a wide palette of classic tones, from warm round cleans, including scooped blackface tones and shimmering crystal cleans. Aggressive power stage breakup is achieved by cranking the clean channel with the lower headroom 6V6 power section, and very smooth, liquid, saturated medium to high-gain overdrive, and varying levels of compression are easily at your fingertips. Switching of the OverDrive section is achieved by a rear panel mounted switch as well as the included 3 button foot-switch. The switchable PAB feature (Pre Amp Boost) lifts the tone stack, increasing the pre amp signal and producing a distinct volume and EQ boost, and is also contolled via back panel or footswitch. The third foot switched & back panel switched function is a MidBoost that is very useful for thickening single note lines for both single coil and humbucker guitars.
