The Eye of Ra

is to distortion what the Rosetta Stone was to hieroglyphics - a key that will open a ruinous dimension of dirt to you and your audiences (RIP, sorry in advance).

GAIN 1 and FOCUS pair to set the stage for the ruin to come, allowing you to pick your overdrive/distortion flavor and swath of EQ destruction.

GAIN 2 is bright and gritty, adding all the bite and edge you’ll ever need. This unholy concoction is topped off with the three-band EQ from a famous Model of Tube amp circuiT (you know the one)))).

Sell the house. Sell the car. Sustain yourself on pure tone and the blood of the innocent.

Controls

Gain 1

Gain control located at the very front end of the circuit - even before the JFET pre-amp - so you can really dial in exactly how hard you want to drive the first JFET mu-amp clipping stage. The clipping stage uses a carefully chosen diode configuration to generate a touch-sensitive overdrive with lots of attack.

Gain 2

After the first JFET mu-amp clipping stage, there is a second JFET mu-amp clipping stage with its own dedicated gain control! Thus, gain 2 allows you to take your already EQ’d and clipping signal and wallop it further, this time with the aid of some asymmetrical LED clipping. Roll Gain 2 back to let Gain 1 dial in a heavy OD/Distortion tone. Or crank both to push your signal into gnarly, touch-sensitive fuzz territory, and watch the LED fire off in celebration – Ra approves!

Focus

Placed in the circuit just after the JFET pre-amp, it works a bit like a tilt-style EQ control with a flat response at twelve o’clock. Use it to dial in exactly what frequencies you want to slam that first clipping stage with: roll it back to soften the treble while boosting lows and low-mids for extra thickness, or crank it up to boost high-mids for a sharper attack and searing clarity

Treble - Mid - Bass

After all that retina-melting gain, surely a little frequency shaping is in order? Well, yeah. But why settle for a little? We added a full passive 3-band EQ, borrowed from a certain ’70s amp favored by the sun goddess Sekhmet for its world destroying power & tone.
