Description
The Electronic Audio Experiments Citadel is a preamp-style overdrive that perfectly emulates the tones of some of the most iconic '60s and '70s British amplifiers. If you've been looking for a versatile overdrive pedal with a vintage character, the Citadel is an excellent choice.
The Citadel emulates a tube amp's preamp and power amp sections, giving it a full-bodied overdrive tone that responds excellently to boosts, drives, and fuzzes. This gives it tons of versatility - players can use it as an amp emulator and send their signal straight to the FOH, or they can use it as a conventional overdrive pedal. It also responds wonderfully to boosts, drives, and fuzzes stacked in front of it, making it great for players who want to stack it with their favorite dirt pedals.
Dialing in a great sound with the Citadel is easy - using the Bright Gain and Normal Gain controls, players can adjust how sparkly and bright or dark and rich their sound is. They can then use the 3-band EQ to fine-tune their signal and boost/cut frequencies. Finally, the Master control sets the pedal's output, and it has plenty of volume on tap.
Sleek, powerful, and incredibly versatile, the Citadel is a great choice for players seeking a top-notch preamp/overdrive pedal with a rich, vintage character.
