Description

The LPD Pedals Fifty5 is a tribute to the legendary tweed amplifiers of the 1950s, bringing their unmistakable character to your pedalboard. Designed for players who appreciate touch sensitivity, rich harmonics, and dynamic response, the LPD Pedals Fifty5 delivers the feel of a cranked Champ, Deluxe, or Bassman in a compact enclosure.

With a straightforward interface, the LPD Pedals Fifty5 offers Level, Drive, and Tone controls, allowing you to shape your sound intuitively. The Voice toggle switch provides two distinct EQ curves: one that emphasises midrange punch and another that balances the frequencies with an extended high end. The HDRM toggle switch lets you choose between a compressed, saturated overdrive reminiscent of smaller tweed amps or a more open, dynamic drive characteristic of their larger counterparts. The interplay between these switches and the tone stack makes the LPD Pedals Fifty5 a highly flexible overdrive pedal that can adapt to various guitars and amp setups.

Playing through the LPD Pedals Fifty5 feels like plugging into a classic tweed amp. It responds to pick attack and volume changes, cleaning up beautifully with lighter playing and breaking up naturally when pushed. Whether you want to capture the saggy warmth of a small combo or the bold, articulate drive of a big stage amp, the LPD Pedals Fifty5 delivers. The carefully tuned gain range covers everything from clean boost to thick, vintage overdrive, ensuring that it finds a place in any rig.

Built for reliability and performance, the LPD Pedals Fifty5 features a rugged cast aluminium enclosure with a unique powder coated finish in 1955 Blue. The custom designed LPD control knobs are slightly smaller in diameter, making them easy to adjust without crowding the interface. Inside, the LPD Pedals Fifty5 is constructed with high quality components, including Alpha style potentiometers and custom built switches engineered for quiet operation, improved durability, and enhanced power filtering. A momentary normally open Carling style switch with low bounce and high cycle life ensures smooth transitions, while last state memory retains your settings when powering up.

The LPD Pedals Fifty5’s true bypass circuit ensures that your signal remains pure when the pedal is disengaged, while the intuitive jack and DC input placement make it a seamless addition to any pedalboard. Compact and lightweight, the LPD Pedals Fifty5 is built for both studio and stage use without taking up valuable space.

For guitarists seeking the authentic sound and feel of classic tweed amplifiers in a reliable, modern format, the LPD Fifty5 delivers. From the warm, compressed grit of a driven Champ to the bold, articulate drive of a Bassman, the LPD Fifty5 captures the essence of an era while giving you the control and flexibility to shape your own sound.
