The LPD Fifty5: Classic Tweed Amp Tones in a Compact Pedal

Authentic 1950s Tweed Amp Sound

The LPD Fifty5 captures the warm, harmonically rich overdrive of legendary 1950s tweed amplifiers. Known for their dynamic response and musical character, these amps defined an era of recorded guitar tones. The Fifty5 recreates this iconic sound in a versatile and compact overdrive pedal, perfect for players seeking vintage tones with modern flexibility.

Straightforward Controls for Versatile Tone Shaping

The Fifty5 features intuitive controls for quick access to a wide range of tones:

• Volume: Sets the overall output level.
• Tone: Adjusts the tonal balance, from warm lows to crisp highs.
• Drive: Controls the level of saturation and overdrive.

Two toggle switches provide further tonal refinement:

• Voice Toggle: Adjusts the EQ curve for either a midrange-heavy tone or a balanced response with enhanced high-end frequencies, interactive with the Tone control.
• HDRM Toggle: Switches between high and low headroom, affecting the compression and dynamics of the overdrive. Use the Low setting for saturated, compressed tones and the High setting for open, dynamic response.

Vintage-Inspired Design with Modern Reliability

The Fifty5 is built to emulate the touch sensitivity, warmth, and natural overdrive of classic tweed amps. Designed for dynamic playing, the pedal responds to your pick attack and guitar volume, making it a seamless extension of your instrument.

Compact, Durable, and Easy to Power

Housed in a sleek 1955 Chevy Blue matte-finish enclosure, the Fifty5 features proprietary knobs for precision control. It operates on standard 9-18V DC power with a modest 15mA current draw and includes true bypass switching to preserve your signal when disengaged.

Perfect for Tweed Amp Enthusiasts

From Tweed Champ-style drive to Tweed Deluxe and Bassman tones, the Fifty5 delivers multiple classic amp voices in one compact pedal. Use the low headroom setting for gritty, compressed overdrive or switch to high headroom for cleaner dynamics. Whether in the studio or on stage, the Fifty5 brings the iconic tones of 1950s amplifiers to your rig.
