TechThis tiny guitar amp is the most unhinged distortion pedal I’ve ever used

Death By Audio’s Amp Crash is both a guitar pedal and a 3-watt amplifier with a 2-inch speaker. Its harsh, boxy tone becomes explosive fuzz at higher gain, while a built-in microphone captures the speaker’s real vibrations and room sound, producing chaotic compression, feedback, crackle, and extreme distortion.
