The Fryette® Pittbull® Ultra-Lead® (formerly branded VHT®) has been the secret sonic weapon of metal guitarists Page Hamilton (Helmet), Mick Thompson (Slipknot), Aaron Turner (Isis, Sumac), Rob Caggiano (Anthrax, Volbeat), Gregg Tribbet (Mudvayne) and Koichi Fukuda (Static-X), to name just a few. This iconic tone machine amp head dishes out some of the tightest, most thickly distorted all-tube tones in history. With its onboard 6-band EQ and range of Boost, Shift, and Edge switches, you can precisely dial your perfect version of an impossibly aggressive metal tone.
Along with his namesake amps, Steven Fryette has been instrumental in the development of Synergy Amplification. Not only did Fryette re-create the Pittbull's sonic signature in flawless detail, but he even managed to fit the amp's 6-band EQ and forward-thinking tonal control onboard. In addition, the Ultra-Lead module automatically selects between the two Cathode profiles to ensure that each channel mode will exhibit the feel and tonal balance that the Ultra-Lead is known for.
