Acapulco Gold

A clone of the legendary Acapulco Gold, famous for its loud, raw, tube-like distortion inspired by the crushing tone of classic Sunn amplifiers.
This single-knob monster delivers pure amp-style saturation. Turn up the volume and you’ll get thick, fuzz-like gain with powerful low end and commanding presence. It responds naturally to your guitar’s volume control and playing dynamics — clean up when you roll back, unleash full destruction when you dig in.
No unnecessary controls. No compromises. Just massive, unapologetic volume and raw character.
Simple. Brutal. Extremely loud.
