The Fortin Amplification Tempest is a high-output overdrive pedal created in collaboration with Architects guitarists Adam Christianson and Josh Middleton, designed as a versatile overdrive and boost solution for studio, practice, and live use. The Tempest is designed to push any amplifier into the high-gain territory that Architects's modern metal sound requires, functioning as both a standalone overdrive and a precision front-end boost into a high-gain head. Its high output ensures effective amplifier saturation enhancement across diverse amp configurations.
The J. Rockett JRAD Blue Note Tour Series is a boutique overdrive pedal developed in collaboration with guitarist Jimmy Herring's tour rig requirements, part of J. Rockett's JRAD (Jimmy Rockett/Archer Design) collaborative series. It delivers refined, amp-like overdrive character built to professional touring standards, reflecting the demands of high-level session and touring guitarists.
