Blumes® is a fully analog tri-mode soft clipping bass overdrive that carries the torch of the classic screamer circuit but has a voice all its own. While embodying most of the features and characteristics of our beloved Small Signal Shredder Plumes®, this modified circuit has double the gain and deeper bass response to retain all the low end. It uses internal bipolar power, giving you more dynamics and all the headroom you could want. The end result is a three-dimensional sound with added clarity that really pushes a beautiful tube amp over the edge.

Tone: More bass on the left, more mids in the middle and more treble on the right.
Level: This controls the output volume.
Cutting modes (3-way toggle):
Symmetrical LED clipping: no more crunch and compression.
No clipping: OpAmp drive wide open for clean boost.
Asymmetrical silicon diode clipping: more transparency with a loose feel.
