Cornerstone Antique V3 Overdrive

Classic Tube Screamer Tones, with a New Level of Versatility!

The Cornerstone Antique V3 takes the familiar character of a classic Tube Screamer-style overdrive and expands on it with new features designed for greater flexibility. Inspired by the iconic Ibanez TS10 and TS808 tones associated with John Mayer, the Antique V3 delivers the smooth, mid-focused overdrive and touch-sensitive response that have made these circuits so popular.

Building on the foundation of previous Antique models, the V3 introduces a new Hot Mode with two independent boost controls, allowing you to adjust gain and output volume separately. This effectively transforms the Antique into a dual-channel overdrive, offering everything from subtle, low-gain saturation to more aggressive, harmonically rich lead tones.

Whether you're looking for a responsive overdrive to complement your amplifier or a versatile gain stage that can cover both rhythm and lead duties, the Antique V3 brings classic Screamer-inspired tones and modern flexibility together in one compact pedal.

Hot Mode: Two Independent Boosts

One of the most significant additions to the Antique V3 is its Hot Mode, which introduces two independent boost stages: Hot Gain and Hot Volume.

Rather than simply increasing the pedal's gain or overall output, these two controls let you shape how the overdrive responds when Hot Mode is engaged. You can add saturation, increase volume, or combine both for a more pronounced lead sound.

Hot Gain: More Saturation and Sustain

The Hot Gain control operates before the overdrive circuit, boosting the signal entering the gain stage. Increasing this control drives the circuit harder, producing additional saturation, compression, and sustain.

This makes it particularly useful for moving from a lighter, more dynamic overdrive to a thicker, more aggressive sound without needing an additional boost pedal.

Hot Volume: More Output Without Additional Gain

The Hot Volume control operates after the overdrive circuit, allowing you to increase the pedal's output level without adding further saturation within the overdrive stage.

It's especially useful when you need a volume lift for solos or want to bring your guitar forward in the mix while maintaining the character of your existing overdrive sound.

With both boosts working independently, the Antique V3 offers a practical way to switch between rhythm and lead tones while retaining the familiar feel and response of a classic Screamer-style overdrive.
