Since its founding in 2009, PedalPalFx has won quite a few fans with its "Passion for Gain." The boutique brand has cultivated a loyal following by building—by hand and through custom order—top-notch drive pedals.
While its PAL 800 JCM Emulator faithfully matches the tone of a Marshall JCM 800 Head in an affordable stompbox, its PAL 959 Plexi Emulator does the same for the renowned Marshall Plexi tone. Today, Andy is putting the Plexi Emulator to the test.
Like all of PedalPalFx's stompboxes, the PAL 959 is 100-percent handmade, which uses the a '60s-era Plexi schematic, but swaps the classic amp's tubes for transistors. The pedal is available directly from the builder through Reverb.
