Precisely modelled in collaboration with Klirrton Manufaktur and producer Kristian Kohle from Kohlekeller Studio, the Grindstein is the official analog modelled simulation suite of their ultimate death metal preamp, along with the cutting edge Schnauze noise gate and the new Fleisch equalizer.

Dirty and fuzzy death metal tones from the 90s into the modern age, from a ripping chainsaw to a more modern and tight sound with just a touch of grind.

It can go from the Swedish HM2 sound all the way to 90’s Florida transistor distortion, but with modern fat low-end and tightness like never heard before!
