Totally Wycked Audio HS-02 Hot Saké

The HS-02 Hot Saké Overdrive/Distortion is TWA’s first foray into the boutique OD market. Hot Saké offers a versatile array of overdriven tones, from classic tube-like drive to searing, 70’s-style fuzz. Hot Saké can be used with a clean amp as a switchable dirt channel, or to push an already dirty amp into meltdown. The degree of “saké-ration” can be easily controlled by manipulating the guitar’s volume control.
