Your Ticket to Orange-flavored British Crunch

There's no such thing as a single "British" tone, no matter how many pedal manufacturers claim otherwise. In fact, the British-style tone comes in many flavors, and the Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series Oxford pedal is unmistakably orange! When you're looking for the creamy kind of boutique grit and vintage grind that's been rocking The Island since the '70s, Oxford is the answer. Hold back the juice and ride the waves of London Glam and post-disco grind, or crank it up and experience the psychedelic rush of classic Brit-rock distortion through a Vintage-style 4x12. With the Tech 21 SansAmp Oxford, everything from sweet and clean to frothy fuzz is just the click of a footswitch away!



Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series Oxford Amplifier Emulation Pedal Features at a Glance:
  • The classic tone of '70s era Brit-rock and psychedelic movement
  • Creamy, Vintage 30-style 4x12 speaker emulation
  • Speaker emulation defeat switch for use with a real amplifier
  • Level and Drive controls act like a traditional, well-equipped amp's
  • Active Low, Mid and High EQ controls let you dial in your sound
  • Continuously-variable Character knob moves seamlessly between different voicings

Get the smooth grit of '70s Brit-rock, with the Tech 21 Oxford Character Series Pedal!

Wonderful product!

Yes. I am blown away by the Character Series from Tech 21 - I've worked hours in my pro-studio with digital modeling and direct recording and nothing comes close to the tone and sound these pedals wil... read more [+]l give you.

The OXFORD is an incredibly versatile pedal and can cover anything from Brit-Pop (Think Oasis) to Classic/Stoner/Hard Rock (Think Black Sabbath/Queens of the stone age and everything in between) to amazingly warm cleans. You'd swear it had tubes in it when it doesn't.
I use this direct to my macbook via a Mackie Onyx interface and again it's the best direct recording tool I have ever used.
Add a little reverb and it's simply beautiful. I also own the LIVERPOOL and in conduction with the OXFORD I get the most incredible layered guitar tracks.
The controls are extremely sensitive and you can get hundreds of usable tones out of it, so don't think of this as a one trick pony "amp modeler" - While it does model a specific brand you can achieve the sounds of most british amplifiers with this thing. Fantastic! close [-]

Wonderful pedal

Extremely great sounding pedal. I run my semi-hollow tele through it straight into a keyboard amp. I do a lot of multi-instrumental looping all through 1 loop pedal and I didn't want to sacrifice guit... read more [+]ar tone for my electric. This pedal does the trick, wide variety of beautiful british tones that sound thoroughly convincing. The footswitch is nice and quiet, has a sturdy build, and is an overall great value for what your paying for it. Only problem is is the battery life is rather short if you use it a lot, but you can always buy a power supply. Get this! close [-]

Versatile, simple pedal

Fantastic pedal! I have used it both as a stompbox before a clean amp (ironically, an Orange, and also a Mesa F30), as well as a preamp for recording. Works great for both. Plug and play, but also, sp... read more [+]end some time with a piece of paper (to jot notes and settings) and the unit, and you will find a multitude of useful sounds, clean to heavy. I can easily mimic my Orange or the F30, or shoot for other sounds too! close [-]

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer knows all his products. I can call and ask him anything and he's on top of it. Some other places just want to sell you something, but I've found Sweetwater to be a helpful, professional company to work with.
