Frequently Asked Questions
It captures the core sound but lacks some of the advanced features and broader control range of the original Q-Tron.
The Drive control primarily shapes the input signal's intensity before it hits the filter, adding more aggressive 'wah' character.
It works fine with humbuckers, but you might need to adjust the 'Drive' control to prevent it from becoming overly saturated.
