Warped Plexi Deluxe 1v0 GIVEAWAY

Project overview

Conceptually based on the Plexi-Drive Deluxe, this pedal expands upon the original Wampler Pedal “Plexi-Drive” by offering enhanced control options that allow you to finely tailor and sculpt your desired tone.

Our version features a front boost inspired by the tube screamer, equipped with gain and tone trimmers, followed by an active EQ for enhanced control and versatility.

Introduction

This reinvention of the Plexi-Drive takes a leap into the modern era of pedals by adding a 3-band active EQ, additional brightness control, and a perfectly voiced pregain booster. With these features, you can achieve a wide range of Plexi tones from virtually any amplifier.

Marshall Amplifiers® have been at the forefront of rock tones since the early 60s, renowned for their tight overdrive and coveted bass response. Legends like Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Cream, and AC/DC played a pivotal role in creating iconic rock tones, solidifying Marshall® as a legendary rock brand.

Just like the original Plexi-Drive, this Deluxe version maintains a unique gain structure capable of delivering vintage ’68 style Plexi tones as well as massive rock tones reminiscent of a cranked JTM-45® amplifier.

The addition of the all-new active 3-band Bass/Mids/Treble EQ stack provides even more control over your tone. The bass boost option allows you to emulate the low-end thump of a 4×12″ cabinet at the flick of a switch, perfect for dialing in your low end at lower volume gigs or bedroom playing.

In addition, we’ve included a bright switch to add high-end sparkle, making it effortless to switch between bright and dark guitars or amps. The Warped Plexi Deluxe also boasts a pre-gain boost soft click switch with a voice reminiscent of “that ‘valve’ screaming green overdrive with pronounced mids,” enabling you to push your leads into thick, creamy overdrive.

The pedal fills the Marshall® void in your rig, providing the crunch, response, boost, and feel that you’ve been longing for. Whether you’re playing sold-out shows or rocking out in solitude, this pedal will elevate your tone and allow you to create your own signature flavor of rock.
