General

The SFT is a classic in the Catalinbread lineup. This updated version offers the same overdrive sound, but now includes a Stones/Stoner switch that allows you to enjoy a wide range of dynamics. In Stones mode, the effects pedal reacts accurately to the dynamics in your playing, and offers you a wide gain range, from sparkling cleans to an Ampeg-style distortion. Stoner mode, meanwhile, really kicks the door down, opening up three tiers of gain to the max, giving you a raw, face-melting tone that is sure to impress.

SFT: versatile overdrive

When Catalinbread started developing the SFT, they originally had the ultimate overdrive pedal for bass guitars in mind. Surprisingly enough, their creation also appeared to work just perfectly for electric gutiars. From '60s and '70s-style to nu-metal, thanks to the Ampeg-based overdrive sound, the Catalinbread SFT is highly versatile with the Stones mode being a nod to the sound of the Rolling Stones' 'Get Yer Ya Ya's Out!' live album. You can adjust the treble and bass just the way you want using a Baxandall equalizer.

Catalinbread effects pedals: handmade in America

In Portland, Oregon, a small team of people from diverse backgrounds and different areas of expertise work together to develop high-quality effects pedals.

The hand-crafted stomp boxes respond perfectly to the subtleties in your playing and so become an extension of your creative expression. Catalinbread brings back traditional sounds in a compact format with enhanced functionality.

Catalinbread SFT Stones/Stoner Ampeg-style overdrive

Wrote the following about Catalinbread SFT Stones/Stoner Ampeg-style overdrive
Zeer fijne Ampeg-in-a-box. Zoals de andere review beschrijft heel gevoelige en interactieve knoppen, waarbij bijvoorbeeld treble onverwacht een behoorlijke invloed op de hoeveelheid vervorming heeft. De moeite waard om hier echt in te duiken en veel verschillende standen te proberen.
Als je dit eenmaal onder de knie hebt echt een fantastisch pedaal voor die lekkere 'droge' Ampeg sound.
Nog nooit een pedaal gehad of gehoord die zó 100% de 70s Stones sound nailt.
En uiteraard QOTSA (ook iets makkelijker te bereiken qua instellingen)

(Kreeg trouwens eerst een exemplaar met gebarsten knoppen, maar dit was geheel de schuld van DHL. De hele Bax-doos was compleet in elkaar gedrukt waardoor dus zelfs het pedaal in zijn eigen doos was beschadigd. Snel en zonder problemen een nieuw exemplaar van Bax toegestuurd gekregen!)

Wrote the following about Catalinbread SFT Stones/Stoner Ampeg-style overdrive
Klein bakje met enorme power! De pedaal bezit een enorme range aan gain met genoeg crunch om goed op te vallen in samenspel. De 4 draaiknoppen zijn interactief met elkaar en vrij gevoelig waardoor een hele waaier aan verschillende geluiden kan geproduceerd worden, van zachte/warme overdrive tot volle loeiharde fuzz.
