The battery-free, on-board overdrive for your guitar or bass!
Black Ice can be configured for just a touch of grit (POLITE), a more aggressive grind (WARM and HOT), or a raw distortion that borders on 60s flavored fuzz (INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH) with most pickups*. Choose your pickup type from the menu above and use the samples to find the wiring configuration that best suits your playing style.
