From the listing

Seller's description

An iconic guitarist who eloquently serves up enchanting and tearful melodies, as well as complicated notes that make your head spin, Marty Friedman surprisingly likes to keep his arsenal quite simple. The goal for Tech 21 was to embody his tone in a neat, compact, plug-and-play footprint. Marty’s focus is always on the music taking the spotlight rather than complex gear with distracting bells and whistles or requiring a cumbersome learning curve. The Marty Friedman programmable Signature SansAmp comes preset with his main clean, dirty and lead tones. Operationally similar to the SansAmp PSA 2.0, there are two modes:  Performance mode to have your 3 main presets at the ready and Studio mode for up to 128 locations for custom presets. Storing and recalling programs is simple. You don’t need any special training or a degree in physics to operate your unit. The rotation of each control increases and decreases in a smooth, gradual, linear fashion, so when you turn a knob, you hear the difference immediately –in real time. You just set your tones and push the Save button. Yeah, it’s that easy. In the studio, you can record direct, enhance existing tracks in mixdowns, as well as add interesting touches to any instrument. Live, the Marty Friedman Signature SansAmp can be used as a pre-amp direct into a power amp with speaker cabinets, as a “monster direct box” to a P.A. system (or both simultaneously), and as an outboard processor. Controls include Reverb, 3-band active EQ, Drive and Level. There’s also an adjustable Gate that dynamically and smoothly cleans up the signal, rather than cutting it off abruptly. Filter alters the tonality by manipulating the mid-range and is specifically voiced for Marty’s unique sound. As is the case with all of our signature artist gear, the Marty Friedman Signature SansAmp offers Marty’s core sounds and the versatility for many different styles. CONTROLS & FEATURES DRIVE for gain and overdrive LOW, MID, HIGH are active tone controls that
