UA makes good stuff.
I have the Dream 65. Fantastic sound.

They all have pretty much the same layout just slightly different functions based on the amp style.

I picked the UA because I don't need a zillion different sounds with mind boggling menus that require a thousand page manual.

As a devoted user of a 1955 Deluxe, I was verrrry impressed with the sound of the Woodrow.

I draw your attention to:

DELUXE55 TWEED RECREATION​

AUTHENTIC VINTAGE TWEED AMP TONE, READY FOR ANY GIG AND ANY RIG​

The DELUXE55 is our all-analogue tribute to the legendary Fender® 5E3 Tweed Deluxe from 1955. With a complete valve amp signal path recreated in miniature using carefully crafted transistor-based circuitry, this compact pedal nails the sound, feel and personality of one of history’s quirkiest combos.

The DELUXE55 recreates everything that’s great about the Tweed Deluxe amp circuit. From articulate edge-of-breakup tones to thick lead sounds and all-out, about-to-explode fuzz, this no-nonsense tone fits into just about any genre. Warm yet cutting, soft yet punchy, its natural compression and hugely responsive overdrive made the Tweed Deluxe sound a real players’ favourite, and this rough-around-the-edges, unsung-hero identity is exactly what we’ve captured in the DELUXE55. Is it sophisticated and refined? No. Does it get the job done with style and bags of character? Absolutely!

This compact pedal simulates 6V6 power amp overdrive, valve rectifier sag, ragged phase inverter distortion, and the fat gritty tone of the Tweed Deluxe’s unconventional preamp – including different valve types. It’s all here in the DELUXE55, ready to drop into any rig. Get the whole experience of playing one of the most unique vintage amps. All you need is one pedal!

For reference:

DELUXE55 Tweed Recreation
: This pedal approximates Fender amps from the Tweed era (1950s). It most closely corresponds to the Fender 5E3 Tweed Deluxe amp from 1955.

DELUXE61 Amp Tremolo & Drive: This pedal approximates Fender amps from the Brownface era (early 1960s). It most closely corresponds to the Fender Brown Deluxe amp.

RevivalDRIVE Compact: This pedal approximates Fender amps from various eras, with controls allowing emulation of both Tweed and Blackface tones. It most closely corresponds to Fender Blackface amps like the Deluxe Reverb or Twin Reverb (mid-1960s).

BASSRIG '64 Black Panel: This pedal approximates Fender bass amps from the Blackface era (mid-1960s). It most closely corresponds to the Fender Showman and Bassman amps from 1964.
