Catalinbread Formula 5F6 Electric Guitar Effects (New Look)

Discover the Catalinbread Formula 5F6 at Focus Camera, your destination for premium guitar gear. This pedal is a loving tribute to the legendary tweed Bassman amplifiers, capturing that iconic late-1950s American tone in a compact box. It delivers the authentic feel and dynamic response of a classic tube amp at any volume, making it an indispensable tool for enhancing your entire pedalboard's performance. Whether you're chasing vintage warmth or a versatile foundation for any genre, the Formula 5F6 delivers. Experience the true character of a Bassman, complete with a simulated 6L6 power section and 4x10 speaker cabinet. This design adds classic warmth and a touch-sensitive, dynamic response to any clean amplifier, achieving those coveted tones without needing to push your amp to extreme volumes. Take full command of your sound with intuitive controls. The Master Volume lets you set the perfect output level for any stage or studio. The Gain knob acts like the original amp's 'Bright Volume,' offering everything from sparkling cleans to touch-sensitive overdrive and thick, singing distortion. Shape your tone with the authentic three-band EQ (Treble, Middle, Bass), which faithfully recreates the original Bassman tone circuit. Dial in focused midrange punch, shimmering highs, or deep low-end. A hidden Presence trimpot allows you to fine-tune the high-end response to perfectly match your guitar and amplifier. Unlock even more versatility with the Mode switch. Choose the Stock setting for classic, low-gain Bassman tones, or flip to the Secret Lead mode for increased gain and a brighter EQ curve, perfect for a modern American overdrive sound. Power it flexibly with 9V to 18V DC. Higher voltages provide more clean headroom and pick attack, while lower voltages offer a softer, more saturated and vintage-appropriate response.
