Patriot
American High-Gain 4-Channel Amplifier (Mark II)
Got a question about this product? Ask us!
The SonicTone Patriot amplifier answers the call to arms in this high-gain battle with its own unique voicing. With features similar to its British counterpart, it's also a very versatile 4-channel amp with an extremely wide range of tones. The Patriot has a fat low-end focus, a slightly more mid-scooped tone, chime-y highs and tons of gain. Great for heavy rhythm or blistering leads, the Patriot delivers amazing tone for demanding players.
For a quick overview of the amp, channel 1 is a beautiful clean line that can also deliver a crunchy overdrive. Channel 2 is "secretly" the same preamp as the '81 Special. And channels 3 and 4 are voiced with the same high gain tone, but both have a few tonal options to allow you to set them up differently.
The Patriot comes with a channel 4 voicing option called the "Arnold" mod. Keeping with the British vs. American Revolutionary War theme of the Modern Series, the "Arnold" mod is named after the infamous turncoat that infiltrated the American ranks. Here, the mod gives the originally American-voiced channel 4 of the Patriot a more British tone, with tighter bass and more mids.
Recommended Speaker Pairing: Celestion 75-watt G12Ts or 60-watt Vintage 30s for modern metal; Celestion 25-watt Greenbacks for 80's rock & metal.
Available as a head.
