Vntage Tone (yes, Vntage doesn’t have an “i”) is a boutique pedal builder out of Mexico, and the Bifurcator Dual Overdrive is their dual overdrive comprising two of their drive circuits in parallel: the Klon-style Prometheus and the VT 4558 Screamer.
The Klon-style side (right channel) adds a Body control to the original’s classic 3-knob layout, for extra tone shaping, while the TS side features a Hot switch to push extra gain.
The two circuits have dedicated footswitches and can be stacked on top of each other, with the Klon channel first in the chain.
Here’s the first video of the Vntage Tone Bifurcator Dual Overdrive.
Vntage Tone Bifurcator, Builder’s Notes
BIFURCATOR; a call to the creation of your sound!
After years of searching, experimentation and countless tests of the best Overdrive sounds, we came to the conclusion that our PROMETHEUS (Who defied the Gods and with fire gave warmth, enlightenment & creation tools to musicians) and our VT 4558 SCREAMER (a classic with its rounded, crystalline & explosive tones) are the best sum towards the Eden of tone creation. Individually each has its character & personality which gives them an unmistakable sound, but now PROMETHEUS comes to us with subtle additions that can help you shape its DNA and create new tonal contours. COMBINE and shape them and you will no longer be bound to just imagining the sounds you hear in your head, now all you have to do it BIFURCATE.
