Falcon was designed as a painstakingly close emulation of the circuits found in a 5E3 Tweed Deluxe and a 6G2 Brownface Princeton. With every detail in mind CTC copied the behavior, sound and feel of the preamp, phase inverter and power amp of both these designs. Applying JFET technology, they managed to recreate not only the overdriven sounds but the lower gain / clean sounds as well.
The most important part was emulating the compression and sag coming out of the power amp and tube rectifier respectively. This effect enhances the pedal’s dynamic, musical feel and makes it very responsive to your picking attack. Depending on amp mode setting and your guitar / pickup’s output this effect can be more or less pronounced.
This sick dirt pedal is very lightly used, and we'll ship it to you super fast and super safe Feel free to give us a call with any questions you may have about it!
