Acapulco Gold

A clone of the legendary Acapulco Gold, known for its loud, raw, tube-like distortion inspired by the crushing tone of Sunn amplifiers.
This one-knob monster delivers pure amp-style saturation — crank it up, and you’ll get thick, fuzzy gain that responds beautifully to your guitar’s volume and playing dynamics.
Simple, brutal, and unapologetically loud.
