At it's core was the Ampeg VH140c but don't be fooled, I couldn't help myself but to make a few [more] tweaks to better fit my taste. I have sat on this version for over a year when I started my amp and it’s what FleshRot should have always been. I found the circuit to be a bit darker than I prefer so first up was adjustments to the filtering. While I was in there tuning it, I have adjusted the tapers on the knobs as well to allow for more ease in dialing in your tone. I found the original amp to be a bit touchy on some the controls.

This is the one for you if you're looking for heavy death metal brutality to put in front of your amp or use as a preamp into your interface or power amp.

    Blistering Suffo in box!

    I am always chasing high gain tones of my fav bands/artists and Suffocation always has my favorite DM tone on albums such as Effigy and Pierced...This pedal does it and MORE! You can dial in that grinding classic DM tone as well as sculped out some modern tight tones. Absolutely love this thing, best preamp pedal! I will be glad to buy more from ThisHeavyEarth!

    Better than Diezel Herbert

    I love the Diezel sound (I realize this is based on an Ampeg model, but they have similar characteristics). I almost always chose the Diezel preset on my Fractal FM3. Then I got the Diezel Herbert Preamp and that often was a high-gain go-to sound. Then I got the Flesh Rot v2 and there's no comparison. The amount of sculpting possible with the Flesh Rot cannot be compared, and it cuts through the mix far better than the Herbert. Nothing but praise. I have this combined with the Grim 3 OD and they sound great together. All into a basic clean channel amp.

    Disgusting

    This pedal absolutely deserves its name. It's truly sounds like flesh rotting off the bone. The controls are very versital but not difficult to dial in a great tone. It's heavy, it's grainy and it's still clear with plenty of attack. Leads sound huge with the right settings. Sounds fantastic in the effects loop or in front of the amp as song as you adjust the controls to compliment the way you are going in. Build quality is superb.
