About this listing
Like new and never gigged Matthews Effects The Architect V3.Description:The Matthews Effects Architect is a refined take on a legendary 1990s-era overdrive. And we do mean legendary — its transparent sound is mythical. The Architect takes that fabled tone and pairs it with an active 3-band EQ. That alone gives you major sound-sculpting power. But this overdrive pedal doesn’t stop there. You also get three clipping modes, enabling a multitude of sonic textures. What’s more, an independent boost channel allows you to slam the front end of your amp with one of two distinct tonal colorations. Clean boost or earth-shaking gain — the Architect handles both with aplomb, along with everything in between. If you can’t find your dream overdrive tone in this stompbox, look again — it’s in there.Active 3-band EQ offers ample sound shapingThe basis for the Architect’s tone is derived from a legendary cult favorite from the 1990s. But the Architect takes it to new heights with the inclusion of a 3-band EQ. Endless sonic textures via 3 clipping modesMost pedal builders would stop at the 3-band EQ, but not Rick Matthews. In addition to the sound shaping offered by the EQ, the Architect also boasts three different clipping modes that modify the pedal’s sonic texture. Silicon sounds tight and crunchy. Diode Lift yields a natural clipping that’s ideal for pushing your dirty amp to the brink. And Germanium delivers a sound that’s both compressed and tight.Punish your amp’s front end with an independent boostThe Matthews Effects Architect also includes an independent boost channel for pushing your amp into saturation. Select between a Silicon or MOSFET circuit as a foundation for your tone, then crank the Boost knob until you achieve the sound you’re reaching for. The layered clean boosts and rafter-shaking grind you create with the Architect is guaranteed to garner attention — plug in and enjoy!
