R-70 D/P Combination
The Ross R-70 D/P Combination is a delightfully versatile stompbox that packs a one-two punch of vintage-inspired distortion and swirling phaser tones. This dynamic duo was a secret weapon for countless guitarists in the golden age of rock and roll, and it's easy to see why. Flip the toggle switch to the "Distortion" setting, and you're greeted with a warm, organic crunch that sits perfectly in the mix. The gain control allows you to dial in everything from a mild overdrive to a searing lead tone, while the tone knob shapes the high-end response to your liking. It's the kind of distortion that sings with character, adding just the right amount of grit to your sound. But the real magic happens when you engage the "Phaser" side of the R-70. The lush, undulating modulation sweeps through your signal, creating mesmerizing textures that can transport your playing to a whole new dimension. Whether you want subtle movement or a more pronounced phase effect, the dedicated speed and depth controls give you precise control over the intensity. The real beauty of the R-70 is its ability to seamlessly blend these two iconic effects. Blending the distortion and phaser opens up a world of sonic possibilities, from psychedelic lead lines to shimmering rhythm parts. It's no wonder this pedal was a go-to for so many legendary guitarists – its unique character and versatility make it a true tone treasure.
