Stereo Amplifier Simulator with 3 Boosts, 3 Cabs/Speakers, Bluetooth, and Presets.
Universal Audio’s Woodrow ’55 perfectly captures the warm tube-style breakup tones of the king of ’50s tweed amplifiers! This pedal is an authentic end-to-end emulation of the classic ’50s 1 x 12-inch combo, sporting three different boost types to push the Woodrow ’55 into that throaty growl that defined rock ‘n’ roll overdrive tone for decades.
Woodrow ’55 comes loaded with three different boosts to push your sound into overdrive — from a raunchy ’50s-style wail to more modern, articulate tones.
Stock: In this mode, the boost is pure clean gain without any added distortion. When you start cranking the knob, the midrange and treble response kick in, with a reduced bass to prevent flubbing.
KP-3K: If you’re after clarity and high-end detail, this one’s for you! This boost brightens up your tone by borrowing the preamp design from a famous ’80s digital delay pedal.
EP-III: Thick, saturated, and warm — how does that sound? The EP-III boost is based on the tape echo of the same name, with plenty of gain and color on tap to add a delightfully vintage character to your tone.
Part of the Woodrow ’55’s magic is found in the dead-on speaker/cab emulations, bolstered by Universal Audio’s Dynamic Room Modeling technology. The Woodrow ’55 comes loaded with three cab/mic/speaker settings, seamlessly matched to the three different amplifier modes. Guitarists looking to cover a wide sonic range will love experimenting with the different speaker and amp pairings; plus, when registering the Woodrow ’55 with Universal Audio, you get three more free cab sims to play with!
Each pedal in Universal Audio’s UAFX series features a special “4-cable” mode accessible via the UAFX Control app, allowing you to bypass your amp’s preamp when the pedal is engaged for incredibly realistic tube-style tones. By hooking your pedal up to both your effects loop send/return and the front of amp input, you can instantly switch between your amp’s stock tone and your UAFX pedal routed straight into the power amp, effectively adding two extra channels to your amplifier. What’s more, Universal Audio designed this feature with multiple pedal setups in mind — you can connect any number of UAFX pedals in this configuration for multi-channel madness!
Looking for greater control over your tone? The Woodrow '55 is Bluetooth compatible to pair with Universal Audio’s powerful UAFX app. In addition to giving you greatly enhanced editing options, UAFX also includes access to artist tones, custom presets, and more!
