W-20 The Tube
The Westbury W-20 "The Tube" is a captivating overdrive pedal that transports your guitar tone into a vintage, tube-driven realm. Developed by the sonic alchemists at Westbury, this pedal harnesses the rich, harmonically-complex character of classic tube amplifiers, delivering a dynamic, touch-responsive overdrive that breathes life into your playing. What sets the W-20 apart is its meticulously-engineered analog circuit, which utilizes a genuine 12AX7 preamp tube to shape your guitar's signal. As you dial in the drive and tone controls, the tube reacts to your picking nuances, producing a wonderfully organic overdrive that blooms and compresses in a way that emulates the feel of cranking a vintage tube amp. The result is a captivating, harmonically-complex gain that adds incredible depth and dimension to your sound. But the W-20 is more than just a tube-powered overdrive - it's a versatile tone-shaping tool that can go from smooth, singing lead tones to thick, saturated rhythms with ease. The active 3-band EQ allows you to precisely sculpt your midrange, while the Presence control adds sparkle and clarity to cut through the mix. Rumor has it that the W-20 was a secret weapon for blues-rock icon Stevie Ray Vaughan, helping him achieve his legendary tone. If you're seeking the organic feel and rich harmonics of a vintage tube amp in a compact pedal format, the Westbury W-20 "The Tube" is an absolute must-try. Prepare to be transported to a bygone era of pure, unadulterated rock 'n' roll tone.
