The LPD Fifty5 is a model that pays tribute to the great American tweed amplifiers of the 1950s. These are among the amplifiers that have been used in the most recordings in history. With its user-friendly layout, you can quickly access amazing tones. In addition to level, drive, and tone controls, it also features voice and HDRM toggle switches, allowing you to adjust the tone to suit various guitar and amp settings. You can control all of the low, mid, and high output sounds. The voice toggle switch works in conjunction with the tone control to adjust the low-mids and bass. The HDRM toggle switch switches between high and low headroom and works in conjunction with the drive control to adjust the drive level of the power amp. The Fifty5 is a guitar overdrive pedal designed and manufactured by LPD Pedals. It is named after 1955, a year known as a turning point in guitar amplifier development. This pedal is specifically designed to emulate the sound and feel of 1950s tweed amplifiers, known for their warm, dynamic, and harmonically rich overdrive tones. The Fifty5 features three simple controls: Volume, Tone, and Gain. The Volume knob controls the overall output level of the pedal, the Tone knob adjusts the tone of the overdrive, and the Gain knob adjusts the amount of distortion and saturation added to the guitar signal. Furthermore, you can further adjust the tone with two toggle switches. The Voice toggle switch provides two different EQ curves that affect the overall tone of the pedal. The first setting provides an overdrive tone with emphasized mids, while the second setting provides a balanced EQ curve with emphasized highs. The HDRM (Headroom) switch controls the headroom of the entire circuit. The "Low" setting provides a more compressed and saturated overdrive sound, while the "High" setting provides a more dynamic and open overdrive sound. This pedal features high-quality components and true bypass, ensuring that the clean guitar signal remains uncolored when the pedal is turned off. The pedal operates on a standard 9V DC power supply. The Fifty5 is designed to deliver a smooth, natural overdrive sound that responds to the player's touch and dynamics. It faithfully reproduces the warmth, touch sensitivity, and harmonics of a classic tweed amp, while providing players with a more compact and versatile overdrive sound. Overall, the Fifty5 is an excellent choice for guitar players looking for a high-quality overdrive pedal that emulates the sound and feel of a classic 1950s tweed amp. With four toggle switch settings, you can enjoy a variety of tweed sounds. Lower the headroom and reduce the bass (lower the Voice setting) to increase the volume for a powerful drive like a Tweed Champ; increase the Voice for a vibe like a Tweed Deluxe; and increase the headroom for a tone like a Tweed Bassman. The enclosure has a 1955 Chevrolet Blue matte finish and comes with LPD custom knobs. • True bypass • Power supply: 9-18VDC center negative • Current consumption: 30mA @ 9VDC Show more
