“I’ve been an Ashdown user for over twenty years and I’m both
proud and excited to present to you my second signature “Hyper Drive” distortion pedal. This one’s called the “Mega Drive”. Ashdown designer Dave Green has taken our initial design idea to another level with this new pedal and it’s really something quite unique! If you love a focused edge distortion with the ability to widen or narrow the size and harmonic spectrum of the distortion circuit and mix it along with your basses pristine tone, you’ve come
to the right place! Now, take this Mega Drive and go out and make a big noise!”
