1958 Gibson Flying V

Spending quality time with the Silktone Expander is like getting lost in a garden maze in late spring. You might not always know where you are, but the sensory overload is so rich and intoxicating that you’ll forget you were trying to get anywhere specific in the first place. Using the Expander, a player encounters full, resonant boost, overdrive, and distortion tones that can sound great in the most straightforward applications. But there are also unusual gain flavors in abundance, ranging from exploding-5-watt-antique-amp textures, thrilling uncommon fuzz fare, and ghostly, smoky, fiery, in-between sounds that defy easy categorization but can drive a mixer, arranger, or songwriter’s inspiration to white-hot levels.
