SONICAKE SANDMAN Digital Preamp Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal w/h 5 Modern-Style Hi-Gain Guitar Amps Models
SONICAKE SANDMAN is a digital pre-amp, featuring the sonic savagery of 5 monstrous Hi-Gain amplifiers from the modern era of metal music. Inspired by 5 of the most renowned Hi-Gain amplifiers in the modern-day metal landscape, SANDMAN will deliver you that gigantic sonic power that would crush your nerve, blast your mind, and explode your pulse. It’s like a Ten-ton Hammer within a tiny box. Go metal up your ass!
SANDMAN utilizes the limitless power of modern-day DSP computing power, putting this massive and relentless gain and volume inside of such a small enclosure, making it easy-to-carry, gig-friendly, and road-ready.
The amp models in SANDMAN are as follows:
1. The 900
Based on a British-style, ultra crunch amplifier with an additional twist in the tonal features of that pure breed of British-style amp sound, which dominated the entire music scene of 90’s.
2. Barbarian
Based on a German modern Hi-Gain amplifier, featuring rapid & dynamic response, and a punchy mid, which gives you the ultimate savagery of modern metal music.
3. Fuel 4
Based on the Hi-Gain channel of a German boutique multi-channel amps, with massive & aggressive gain structure, which offers you enough distortion and yet enough clarity.
4. The Treadplate
Based on an American-style, Hi-Gain amplifier, with a truly aggressive & monolithic Hi-Gain tone, which is still the standard tonal benchmark for basically all the modern heavy rock music.
5. 5151
Based on an American-style, ultra Hi-Gain amplifier, with gigantic but relentless power, which offers you the sonic brutality of all sorts of heavy music.
SANDMAN also comes with a built-in cab simulation, which pairs each pre-amp model with the matchin’ cab, making it the perfect solution for a gig where there is only PA system, no guitar amps. But still, we recommend you to plug SANDMAN into the power amp section.

Awesome pedal I have been interested in getting one of these “preamp” pedals for quite some time now,ever since i saw a few demos on Youtube for the Mooer preamps,and most recently,the Donner black devil.However,i came across the Sonicake by accident while browsing,and obviously discovered that this one delivers more “bang for the buck” compared to the others,since it models 5 high gain amps in a single device.Nonetheless, i was still reluctant,since a lot of highly educated guitar geniuses will tell you :…
High gain MINI pedal with built in cab simulation for under 100 bucks!? WOW! This pedal is solid as a rock; it is very well built.All 5 amp models/channels are distinct and very flavored.
