Until the start of November, AmpliTube 5 users can grab IK Multimedia's OverScream - for free. Happily, the offer also applies to users of the Italian FX firm's free Custom Shop version of its moreish modelling behemoth.
The AmpliTube OverScream is a nicely filthy emulation of Ibanez's Tube Screamer, the classic overdrive/distortion pedal first brought to prominence by Stevie Ray Vaughan, and subsequently deployed to good effect by top players like Bonamassa, John Mayer and The Edge. Its lairy mid-range bark and simple controls see it sitting proudly in our very own guide to the best cheap guitar pedals you can buy right now.
