    Empress Effects Germ Drive
    A unique, warm, natural overdrive, perfect for jazz, blues or country guitarists, the Empress Germ is the classic sound of the tweed tube amps of the 1950's. Ideal if paired with a Strat or Tele. True bypass, two bands of EQ, and responsive output control. The Germ drive delivers warm, harmonically rich overdrive that cleans up with a twist of your volume knob. Its tube-like break-up sounds extremely natural and will enhance your sound without masking the original tone of your instrument. This true bypass overdrive offers gain control, two bands of EQ and output control to fully tweak your sound.
