Product Information


It's less costly than the original Sans Amp, and it's even easier to set up. So the folks at Tech 21 must have compromised on sound quality, right? Not as far as we can tell! GT2 purrs and screams with the same kind of fat, warm, glowing-glass sounds heard in the original, but cost-effective manufacturing brought the price down. You select amp type, modification, and mic placement. Find the tone you want using high and low EQ, set your level, dial up distortion with the drive knob, then hit the "on" switch. A truckload of tube amps in a pedal!

Turbocharges any amp sound tube! Order yours today.

Best pedal for the job

I cant say enuff about this pedal. I've tried them all; BOSS Overdrive, Ibanez Tube Screamer, Super Distortion, Metal Zone and many others and this pedal blows them all away. It can make a small practice amp into a beast. You will NOT be dissappointed...GET IT!

pretty real distortion

This pedal sounds very good by itself as well as in front of a tube amp. I wish it had a mid range control though. For close to two hundred dollars it really should. If you play metal hook this up with another dist. pedal and you'll like it. If you're a bluesy guy add an eq pedal to it and boost those mids. All in all a very good pedal because you can get really good clean sounds out of it too. Sounds pretty real going direct too.

A wide ranged pedal.

I bought this SansAmp GT2 2 years ago, I was really in to Metal, fusion that time, and this pedal was the best buddy of mine. It has such wide range; it can compete other brand name's product such as Boss and Digitech. It is excellent for playing rock and metal. However the only thing is there isn't a mid channel, so you either need an EQ, or add another dist pedal such as Ibanez TS9 to it, otherwise it will sound very dry. A big advantage of this pedal is that it makes clear dist, dirty enough but still clean. Recommended!

Very useful device

For years I've used various amps on stage and for recording - everything from Marshalls to Mesa Boogies. I picked up the SansAmp GT2 for recording, and I will tell you that it sounds EXACTLY like a hot-rodded tube amp. Bear in mind that this is not a distortion box; rather, it's an amp simulator. You cannot play it through your guitar amp. It's designed to go straight into the mixer or PA system, and it duplicates the sound of a miked cabinet quite well. That's the whole purpose - to eliminate the need to drag stacks of amplifiers all over the place when you're gigging. The "British" tone selection sounds very close to a Marshall, with plenty of low-end crunch. Honestly, people in the audience (or those listening to your recording) will not be able to tell that the sound is coming from a box the size of a ham sandwich. It sounds much bigger.

Simply mind blowing

The feel and sound of the unit is amazing. I have a '93 Fender Telecaster fitted with Noiseless Pickups. I use my Sansamp through the house and it responds just like an amp. The sound does not feel compressed and breathes. I use the Classic/High Gain/British setting. Lots of crunch and personality. Warm, ballsy and thick. I have had mine for over a decade now and it still is the number 1 preamp for electric guitar for me. Playing through the house is a joy with the Sansamp! Truly an innovation! Nice one Tech21NYC! I am going to try out the Sansamp Blonde now.
