Seymour Duncan - It's all about the tone!

Seymour Duncan's SFX-03 Twin Tube Classic performs double-duty as a high-quality, 2-channel guitar preamp and stellar tube-driven overdrive. The Twin Tube Classic uses a duet of premium, mil-spec, subminiature, USA-made Phillips-Sylvania 6021 dual triode tubes, and generates a tone that's great for country, blues, surf, and classic rock. The key to the SFX-03's great sound is its ability to run high-plate voltage, allowing the tubes to really cook and create a thick, warm tone. Take your tone to new sonic heights with the SFX-03 Twin Tube Classic.



Seymour Duncan SFX-03 Twin Tube Classic at a Glance:
  • Sound
  • How it works

Sound
The high-plate voltage and 100% vacuum tube signal path allows the tubes to operate at their fullest potential and provide maximum dynamic range. The means you get the most gain and all the smooth tone you expect from a high-quality tube preamp. Two channels provide sonic versatility, and true bypass maintains signal integrity when the pedal isn't engaged. A fully encapsulated toroidal transformer provides quiet operation, and the heavy duty steel chassis makes it rugged for the road.

How it works
The SFX-03 is a two channel guitar preamp employing premium subminiature type 6021 vacuum tubes. The 6021 is manufactured to meet the stringent MIL-E-1 specification for reliability and is optimized to provide long service life under conditions of severe shock, vibration, high temperature, and high altitude. The tubes are configured with a high voltage power supply for maximum dynamic range. True bypass capabilities are provided to allow uncolored feed-through.
