UAFX’s superlative line of stompbox amp modellers has hitherto arrived with the tagline of “lose yourself in legit vintage tone” and that has been good as its word, but its latest pedal, the Anti 1992, launched today, presents us with an altogether different take on what we’d consider “vintage”.
It's vintage, but it ain't your granddaddy's vintage. The period in question is the early ‘90s, a great vintage for high-gain metal guitar tone as the “Block Letter” Peavey 5150 high-gain metal amps arrived on the market. Inspired by its 120-watts of ferocity, the Anti 1992 promises to add something vicious to your rig. And if it’s anything like its siblings, it could become an essential tool for today's metal player.
