I keep meaning to post about how much I love my Heatsaw. I have a few (too many? :snax: ) Percs, and the Heatsaw stands out. It has such great range between the clipping options and bias control (which is chef's kiss in it's range). It can definitely get splatty and/or spitty like any true Perc should, but it also has a broad range of tones available that deliver simultaneous attack clarity and gnarly decay, a tough trick to pull off, in my experience.

It was my main dirt when I did the processional music for a wedding this August, and it was the perfect blend of chewy character without screaming "let's take this solemn occasion to the bacchanale!" - composure without collapsing into blandness. It sounds particularly sweet with lap steel. I can't decide yet whether my favorite settings were lower gain/higher bias silicon clipping or higher gain/lower bias LED clipping, but overall, the LED clipping options are a big part of what makes this Perc stand out.... :joy:

I recently had it up against two other, more fancypants, Perc variants, and I'm not gonna mention their names because they're fine, upstanding Percs and I don't want to besmirch their reputations, but for my purposes the Heatsaw just owned them. :snax:
