Here's What Origin Effects Say About the Deluxe 61 Amp Tremolo & Drive Pedal

The Deluxe 61 (previously the RevivalTREM) is the first ever pedal to faithfully recreate power tube bias tremolo, the sought-after effect found in a handful of classic amps from the late ‘50s and early ‘60s. More than just a tremolo pedal, the Deluxe 61 Amp Tremolo & Drive Pedal also delivers a deliciously chewy and rich Brown Fender-style overdrive tone that interact with the bias tremolo effect just like the real thing.

True power tube bias tremolo, in a pedal!

Based on the Deluxe 61 Amp Tremolo & Drive Pedal platform, the Deluxe 61 houses a complete valve amp-style signal path recreated in all-analogue electronics.

This allows it to recreate the uniquely musical and dynamically responsive bias tremolo effect at circuit level, while also offering a broad palette of stunning clean and overdriven amp tones voiced after the Brown Fender Deluxe.

A range of modern features, including switchable wave shapes, tap tempo, rhythmic subdivisions and effects switcher integration, bring modern convenience to the Deluxe 61 authentic vintage tones.

Dynamically responsive tremolo 

Smooth, deep and rich, bias tremolo is considered by many to be the pinnacle of built-in amp trem. In contrast to optical and VCA-based tremolo designs, which attenuate the signal itself, bias tremolo works by varying the bias voltage fed to the amp’s power tubes, giving the effect its unique character and almost magical dynamic qualities.

While other tremolos impose themselves on top of your playing, bias tremolo has the capacity to respond to it. As power amp gain increases, loud notes and chords are able to rise above the effects of bias modulation. Digging in harder allows you to “play over” the tremolo effect, before letting it fade back in as the note dies away or you soften your pick attack.

The Deluxe 61's amp-like circuitry reproduces this effect exactly, right down to the complex interaction between gain, bias voltage, playing dynamics and harmonic content.

Authentic Deluxe tones, from clean to mean

In the designing of the The Deluxe 61, we worked hard to distil the complex functionality of the original pedal into an intuitive set of controls while still retaining as much range as possible.

The brand-new Highs control takes the original pedal’s three distinct preamp voicing modes and maps them onto a single, continuous knob that offers a wealth of new in-between settings.

We also redesigned the Blend knob to simultaneously back off the gain as you mix in your clean tone, ensuring pleasing, musical results throughout the control’s travel.

Vintage tremolo meets modern features

As well as a wider range of Speed and Intensity settings, we’ve provided two different LFO wave shapes – a smooth, Deluxe-style sine wave and a less symmetrical, Magnatone-style rectified sine wave.

Attaching an external footswitch enables tap tempo and remote tremolo on/off switching, while the same footswitch input allows direct integration with effects switching systems like the Boss ES series or TheGigRig G2. The The Deluxe 61's speed multiplier switch offers quarter-note, eighth-note and triplet tempo subdivisions while also shifting the range of the pedal’s Speed knob.

With high-quality components throughout, the The Deluxe 61's is designed and built for professional performance and rock-solid reliability.

Please note: the The Deluxe 61's is powered by a mains adaptor only (not included). We’ve dispensed with the usual 9V battery option, both to save space and to allow us to adopt a high-current approach, yielding lower noise levels and superior tone.

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Amp — An amp is an amplifier used to boost the signal from a guitar and shape its overall tone and volume. It plays a major role in how a guitar sounds, influencing everything from clean clarity to natural overdrive and distortion, and is a core part of any guitar setup for both practice and live performance.. Deluxe. Drive — Drive is an effect category that adds gain to the guitar signal, creating anything from light breakup to heavy distortion. Drive pedals are used to add warmth, sustain, and character, shaping how a guitar responds to picking dynamics and helping it cut through a mix.. Effects — Effects are guitar pedals and processors used to shape, enhance, or transform your sound. They can add anything from subtle warmth and dynamics control to heavy distortion, modulation, ambience, and time-based textures, allowing players to tailor their tone to different styles and musical situations. Used individually or combined into a signal chain, effects give players creative control over how their guitar responds and sits in a mix. From simple, single-function pedals to advanced multi-effects units, effects are an essential part of modern guitar setups for both live performance and recording.. Pedal — Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own.. Tremolo — Tremolo is an effect that creates a rhythmic pulsing by varying the volume of the guitar signal up and down. It can be subtle and smooth or choppy and pronounced, adding movement and texture to clean tones and is commonly associated with classic amps and vintage-style sounds..
