When it comes to Bluesy cleans and fat lead tones, the Vertex Effects Steel String Supreme (Slight Return Edition) — based on serial #001 of a legendary six-figure Dumble Steel String Singer — is the only tone shaper you'll need in your arsenal. Whether you're front-ending a stage amp with the Supreme expanded all-analog preamp, feeding a little D-style sugar into your Amp Modeler, or even running straight into a Cab Simulator/IR Loader, this pedal is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Just like the amp it's named after, the Steel String Supreme (Slight Return Edition) is characterized by a fat and glassy tones sound that absolutely marinates signals in tubelike harmonics as you ramp up the gain. The Slight Return Edition's active EQ and Bright/Deep + Rock/Jazz switches add new tone-shaping capabilities from the original SSS and bring you a bit more available top end "glass" and a little more low-end "snap" to this latest addition to the Steel String family. From subtle fattening and clean compression to full-on overdrive, the Vertex Effects Slight Return Edition is the next best thing to having the real-deal SSS in your rig.
