Congratulations and special thanks from DigiTech® for choosing the Scott Ian Black-13 Artist Series Pedal.

DigiTech’s philosophy for developing products begins with the desire to provide every guitarist with the best-sounding, most creative tools possible. To this end, our revolutionary technology, Production Modeling, was designed to help reproduce the studio and live sounds and effects of an artist as heard on their recordings. This includes modeling the speaker cabinets, microphones with their placements, pre/post effects, and the recording engineer’s magic all in one pedal.

The Black-13TM Artist Series Pedal is the product of our collaboration with Scott Ian, the world famous guitarist for the bands Anthrax and S.O.D.. Scott’s aggressive playing style helped create and define old-school metal, thrash, nu-metal and even rap music genres.The Black-13 pedal models seven of Scott’s signature tones from songs like “Madhouse” with Scott’s devastating rhythm crunch from his early years with Anthrax,“Finale” with its dramatic delay and eerie pitch shift effect, to “What Doesn’t Die” which features Scott’s ultra-heavy, grinding tone. Mosh it Up with the Black-13!
