Description

Double barreled to blow you away, the Browne Amplification UNIT-13 Dual Distortion Device is an all-analog, all-American double-drive effect in classic fashion. Taking inspiration from classic American dirt boxes of olde, the UNIT-13 brings timeless distortion tones into the twenty-first century with a clean Browne design ethos to impress on every level.

For fans of Browne and their mastery over dual-headed drive devices, the UNIT-13 is sure to be a winner from square one. On either side, the UNIT-13 loads in a distortion circuit specifically designed for its intended role in the greater picture. To the left, the UNIT-13 features a low-gain-tuned distortion with refined low-gain structure and a vast gain sweep. Rectifying the ever-present trade-off in low-gain drives, the UNIT-13's leftmost effect expands the range of gain on tap while artfully reeling in driven character and carefully contouring low-end with a three-way toggle.

On the UNIT-13's rightmost side, an identical distortion circuit lands for the pedal's high-gain effect. Full, punchy, distorted tones blast from this side with a two-way clipping diode toggle for two distinct flavors of gain and drive. Together, these two distortions break the mold on classic doubled-up distortion with delectable driven character. An internal dipswitch opens up operation on the pedal outside its default A/B footswitching, allowing the pedal's left switch to engage the whole pedal at once and the right switch to instantly swap between either side. True bypass footswitches and standard nine-volt DC power make the UNIT-13 a modern marvel in every way.

Ushering bold, analog distortion tones into the modern day, the UNIT-13 is Browne's day at the beach for double-barreled distorters. Go ahead, make my day!
