Origin Effects Deluxe55 Tweed Recreation Overdrive Pedal
The Origin Effects DELUXE55 is an allanalogue tribute to the legendary Fender 5E3 Tweed Deluxe from 1955. With a complete valve amp signal path recreated in miniature using carefully crafted transistorbased circuitry, this compact pedal nails the sound, feel and personality of one of history's quirkiest combos.
The simple 5E3 Tweed Deluxe has tone and versatility that exceed its diminutive size. From articulate edgeofbreakup tones to thick lead sounds and allout, abouttoexplode fuzz, this tiny amp fits into any genre where a nononsense guitar tone is required. Warm yet cutting, soft yet punchy, its natural compression and hugely responsive overdrive make this tone a real players' favorite. Is it sophisticated and refined? No. Does it get the job done with style and bags of character? Absolutely!
This rougharoundtheedges, unsunghero identity is exactly what Origin captured in the DELUXE55. This pedal simulates 6V6 power amp overdrive, valve rectifier sag, ragged phase inverter distortion, and the fat gritty tone of the Tweed Deluxe's unconventional preamp including different valve types. It's all here in the DELUXE55, ready to drop into any rig. Get the whole experience of playing one of the most unique vintage amps. All you need is one pedal!
Starting with a real Tweed Deluxe, Origin began an extensive process of testing and measurement to understand every detail of the circuit. From here, Origin redesigned their allanalogue Amp Recreation circuitry to mimic the exact behavior of this amp. The DELUXE55's pushpull output stage overdrives in exactly the same way as the 6V6 power amp in the real amp. Origin even included a reactive load to simulate the interaction between the amp's power amp and speaker, crucial to the feel of a real valve amp. The cathodyne phase inverter and the famously unconventional preamp design are also recreated with equal accuracy, right down to the TONE control which adds gain as you turn it up.
The DELUXE55's Amp Recreation circuitry features a PREAMP switch, mimicking the effect of swapping a 12AY7 preamp valve for a 12AX7 a popular mod among Tweed Deluxe owners. This switch takes your tone from a bright, articulate crunch to a warmer, highergain tone, unleashing a collapsing wall of fuzz with all the knobs cranked!
An Amp Recreation pedal only makes sense if you can use it in a modern rig, so the DELUXE55 is equipped with a Post EQ circuit. This filter comes after the Amp Recreation circuitry and ensures compatibility with traditional amps, modelers, power amps and cabinet simulators.
Designed and built in the UK to exacting standards, and housed in a brushed stainless steel and aluminum enclosure, the DELUXE55 is ready for a life on the road, serving up vintage Tweed amp tone night after night.
