Abasi Concepts / PATHOS

Created in the United States by Tosin Abasi and Brian Wampler, Pathos is ideal for guitarists seeking a variety of distortion flavors to express musical stories.

This pedal has a fervent appeal to the diverse sonic needs of the modern guitarist. Designed to retain the feel of an American-style tube amp channel, its versatility comes from its “smooth” and “edgy” voicings that range from emotional crunch to searing, yet controlled distortion and sustain. The two voicings can be adjusted using a musically tuned EQ shelf and mid control, as well as a powerful set of gain and level controls.
These precision specifications allow Pathos to encompass the functions of several dirt boxes in one. These precision specifications allow Pathos to encompass multiple dirt box functions in one: a push into a driven amp, a full-on distortion channel before a clean amp, a boost before a digital modeler, and more.
