Sommatone Outlaw 
 
Finally a high gain amp with great tone! Our design concept sought to achieve versatility without the unnecessary features that so often suck the tone right out of an amp. The Outlaw delivers heavy overdrive with plenty of clarity, punch and note definition. As with our other models, less is more, accompanied by the Sommatone build quality that we're known for…hear the difference.
