Fireplace Classic
Covington Guitar Effects' Fireplace Classic is a must-have for any guitarist seeking the iconic Brian May tone. This treble booster is a faithful recreation of the legendary circuits that powered Queen's soaring leads and harmonically rich rhythm parts. What makes the Fireplace Classic so special? It's all about the gain. With up to 35dB of pure, clean boost on tap, this pedal can push your amp into glorious, saturated overdrive without ever compromising your guitar's natural voice. The carefully selected components, including metal film resistors and polyester film capacitors, ensure the signal remains crystal clear even at extreme boost levels. But the Fireplace Classic isn't just about sheer power - it's about touch responsiveness and feel. Roll back your guitar's volume, and you'll discover a rich, harmonically complex sound that cleans up beautifully. Crank it up, and you'll be treated to the singing, singing sustain that defined Brian May's legendary tone. Whether you play through a vintage tube amp or a modern digital modeler, the Fireplace Classic will unlock a new world of tonal possibilities. Pair it with your favorite overdrive or distortion pedal for a fully saturated lead sound, or use it alone to push your amp into glorious, harmonically rich territory. This is the boost that Brian May himself used to carve out Queen's signature sound - and now it can be yours.
