AMT Electronics started with Sergei Marichev, an employee of a Russian
Defence enterprise, making electronic music equipment in the old Soviet Union
where no Western technology was available. In 1987 when private enterprise began
to be allowed, the Asia company was started. After a few years this became AMT
and the company focused primarily on guitar effects. The company specializes in
analogue distortion pedals and has an extensive range alongside some bass
effects and a compressor. Originally these pedals were designed purely by ear as
Sergei had no other information to go on and the sounds he has captured speak
for themselves. If you need a good distortion pedal look no further. All pedals
are 9V battery or DC in and are housed in solid metal casing.

All you bass players get ready for this one. Looking

through an amp or direct recorded due to built-in cabinet emulation circuitry.

for bass players already using valve amps by not having to pass through other
digital bass pedals. The creamiest, smoothest, warmest tube powered bass pedal available.
