Formula 5F6
The Catalinbread Formula 5F6 is a truly remarkable overdrive pedal that will transform your guitar tone and unlock a world of expressive, touch-sensitive playing. Inspired by the iconic tweed Fender Bassman amplifier, this pedal captures the essence of that revered vintage tone - from the sparkling clean chime to the thick, creamy crunch that sits perfectly in the mix. At low to medium volumes, the Formula 5F6 delivers a harmonically rich, responsive overdrive that reacts beautifully to your picking attack. Dig in and you'll be rewarded with a lush, swirling overdrive that cleans up effortlessly when you back off the strings. Crank it up and you'll experience the legendary Bassman sag and compression, that smooth, singing sustain that has graced countless classic recordings. But Catalinbread didn't stop there. They've also included a "supercharged" mode that takes the circuit to a new level of gain and brightness, while retaining that quintessential American voiced tone. This versatility makes the Formula 5F6 an indispensable tool for guitarists seeking to nail vintage tones or push the envelope with modern high-gain sounds. Whether you play a Fender, Gibson, or any other guitar, the Formula 5F6 will integrate seamlessly into your rig, enhancing the response and character of your other pedals and amplifier. It's no wonder this pedal has become a staple on the pedalboards of discerning players who demand the ultimate in touch-sensitive, harmonically rich overdrive.
