Key Features
Build Your Own Custom D-Style Amp
Put Enigmatic ‘82 into Custom Mode to go under the hood and tweak your own ODS circuit. Start with four classic output tube and power supply setups, and select your favorite era of tone stack EQ. Then add the famed Hot Rubber Monkey (HRM) mod to get world-famous “D-style” overdrive and compression.
