Classic Brit Jangle to Overdriven Top Boost Bark and More!

The Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series Liverpool pedal gives you that distinctive chime and grind of a classic diamond grille amp. You can achieve everything from British Invasion jangle to a top-boost growl with the Liverpool, using its six effective controls (Level, Mid, Character, Drive, Low, and High knobs). All the pedals in the Character Series are much more than simple stompboxes; you can use them as preamps or take advantage of built-in speaker emulation for quiet, hassle-free recording. Get a diverse range of overdrive and distortion tones with the Liverpool pedal!

Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series Liverpool Pedal at a Glance:
  • The heart of a classic amp inside
  • SansAmp technology, built-in speaker emulation
  • Proven technology, great products

The heart of a classic amp inside
Each pedal in the Character Series is loaded with the tonal DNA for a specific style of guitar amplifier. By simply twisting a few knobs, you can build those sought-after tones or hot rod your own. From rare vintage classics to roaring modern icons, every variation is delivered in the distinctive voicing of that amp style. The intuitive amp-like controls let you get your hands dirty from the get-go to explore decades of blistering tones.

SansAmp technology, built-in speaker emulation
Being a genuine SansAmp, each Character Series pedal is far more than just a stompbox. Each can be used as a standalone preamp to drive a power amp, a studio mixer, or a PA system, with the rich SansAmp cabinet emulation that sounds huge - even straight into a computer soundcard. Or plug them into your guitar amp to take your tone somewhere special.

Proven technology, great products
Since the first SansAmp was unleashed back in 1989, Tech 21 has developed an impressive line of products to cover every application. Each SansAmp product is still hand-built in the USA using the best possible materials and exclusive components, such as our smooth custom actuators which are licensed to other major manufacturers. Tech 21's range of products are developed with a critical ear for tonal perfection and an open ear to our customers' needs.

Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series Liverpool Pedal Features:
  • Authentic-sounding tones, from jangle to top-boost growl
  • Six level-, tone-, and drive-shaping controls (Level, Mid, Character, Drive, Low, and High knobs)
  • Built-in speaker emulation
  • Use as a stompbox, preamp, or standalone recording tool
  • Proven SansAmp quality and reliability

The Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series Liverpool pedal lets you go from chime to grind, easily!

Amazing

by mike snow from USA

This little puppy really delivers. The controls are extremely sensitive, and really allow you to fine tune a great sound. I play my Rickenbacker 330 guitar through this thing and absolutely nail those... read more [+] first four Jam albums as well as those early Beatles tones. I've never been able to quite nail those before, and I own a Vox AC30 and have tried and/or owned nearly every pedal under the sun.

This pedal chimes, which really blows me away. As soon as Sweetwater got one in stock, I had to try it, and man am I glad I did!

I will say, however, that my 12 string Rick didn't sound that great through it, but it only really sounds killer through a compressor and a very clean amp.

I've tried a few other of my guitars through it with equally pleasing results, but if you own a 6 string Rickenbacker, you really should check this pedal out. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
