Imitate 2 classic Fender amps: the '55 Tweed Deluxe and the '61 Brownface Princeton!

Back in 2016, Crazy Tube Circuits built an amp that morphed the sounds of a 5E3 Tweed Deluxe and a 6G2 Brownface Princeton.

They liked the sound and feel of the amp so much that they decided to capture it in pedal format.

Falcon was designed as a painstakingly close emulation of the circuits found in these amps.

Crazy Tube Circuits copied the behavior, sound and feel of the preamp, phase inverter and power amp of both these designs.

Applying JFET technology, the Falcon recreates not only the overdriven sounds but the lower gain / clean sounds as well.

The most important part was emulating the compression and sag coming out of the power amp and tube rectifier respectively.

This effect enhances the pedal’s dynamic, musical feel and makes it very responsive to your picking attack.


Toggle between Tweed and Brownface sounds.

Use the Amp Mode toggle switch to morph between Tweed and Brownface sounds.

The Brownface mode has less gain for cleanish or slightly overdriven brownface sounds.

The Tweed mode has a bit more gain and low end oooomph designed to make even the weakest guitar sound HUGE.

You will also notice way more sag / compression: emulating the cathode bias power tubes of the tweed design.
