Description

Edit description

Unleash your guitar's true potential with the Stinger TS-5 Tube Stack Overdrive, an essential tool for guitarists seeking the authentic warmth and dynamic response of a tube amplifier. Designed to deliver a classic tube-driven tone, this overdrive pedal brings a rich, harmonic complexity to your sound, perfect for blues, rock, and everything in between.

With its straightforward controls, the TS-5 allows you to easily dial in the perfect amount of gain and tone shaping. It features a custom-engineered circuit that mimics the natural compression and saturation of an overdriven tube amp, ensuring your riffs and solos cut through the mix with clarity and power. Its rugged construction makes it a reliable companion for both stage and studio use, while true bypass switching ensures that your signal remains pristine when the pedal is not engaged.

Whether you're pushing your tube amp into sweet saturation or adding a bit of grit to a clean channel, the Stinger TS-5 is versatile enough to enhance any setup. Its compact size makes it a perfect fit for any pedalboard, while its intuitive design ensures you'll spend more time playing and less time tweaking.

Key Features:

Classic tube-driven overdrive tone
Custom-engineered circuit for natural compression and saturation
Straightforward gain and tone controls
True bypass switching for uncolored signal
Rugged construction for durability
Compact design suitable for any pedalboard setup
