High-gain Purple Channel Fury

Boasting all-new aesthetics and a fine-tuned circuit, Revv’s anniversary edition G3 pedal delivers all the aggression and articulation of Revv’s Purple Channel. Championed by metal guitarists the world over, the Purple Channel tone provided by the Revv G3 offers a tight and focused tone that excels when taken into heavier realms but is more than versatile enough to serve as a do-it-all dirtbox. Like the original G3, this anniversary edition sports a versatile 3-band EQ and wide-ranging Volume/Gain knobs to shape your sound. Moreover, the Anniversary Edition G3’s 3-way switch supplies three distinct levels of tonal aggression. Crowned with blacked-out cosmetics and a compact, pedalboard-friendly metal enclosure, the Revv G3 sends your distortion straight to the depths of gain-laden modern metal destruction.

Five years of G series excellence

Celebrating five years of Revv's G series pedals, anniversary edition pedals reimagine the brand’s most sought-after stompboxes with an all-new style and sound. Each circuit has been tweaked and modified with an enhanced voice, ensuring that your Revv anniversary pedal sings with the same world-class sonics as the amplifier channels that inspired them. Moreover, these pedals feature an elegantly understated black finish and custom anniversary edition appointments that stand in stark contrast to the G2, G3, and G4’s brightly colored predecessors.

Revv G3 Anniversary Features:

  • Celebrating the 5th anniversary of Revv’s G Series pedals, with all-new aesthetics and a freshly revoiced circuit
  • Capture the tight, focused tone of Revv’s Purple Channel — a favorite of modern metal guitarists
  • 3-way switch unlocks 3 distinct levels of aggression
  • Full-fledged 3-band EQ and powerful Gain/Volume knobs
  • A perfect choice for stacking with other pedals, with an exceptionally noise-free operation
  • Pedalboard-friendly enclosure with convenient top-mounted jacks

Excelente sonido
Me encanto la calidad de sonido que ofrece este pedal.
Revv G3 Anniversary Edition
First, I would like to share how great my Sales Engineer Will Traynor is! He has been outstanding with providing information on the gear I have purchased. This is the sound I have been looking for. I was running a 4 cable method, but currently run the Revv G3 and all other pedals through the effects loop return. The G3 is articulate, tight with great tone that cuts through the mix! It is extremely quiet. No gate is needed. I will be purchasing another G3 for a larger board I am building. It definitely is amp-like and worth the investment!

Prior to purchasing the anniversary edition of the purple pedal I had been using the original. The original is great and I've had no complaints. I did some research about this anniversary edition and waited a long while before purchasing it. I finally bit the bullet and decided to try it out. I've been using these pedals to boost my OD on my jcm900 and Marshall Valvestate. I must say the anniversary edition gives what I've been looking for. My Marshall amps sound badass when this pedal kicks in. I like how it enhances the overdrive while still letting the natural sound of the amp come through. I play metal through these marshalls and the best comparison I can give is the pedal can offer a combined saturation of an EVH but with the clarity of the Marshall. I also own a peavey 6505+ and an EVH. I'll eventually fire those up but I've been really enjoying what this pedal can do for the Marshall amps right now. One of the best things about this purple anniversary edition is once the pedal is kicked on you don't need to turn up the overdrive too much. The level I use is around 9 o'clock. These pedals are a bit pricey but we'll worth the investment.

Idk what else to say, this pedal absolutely rips! Throw a od808 in front of it with an Eq pedal in the amp effects loop and enjoy the high gain brutality. An absolute must of your into down tuned high gain metal. 10 out of 10.

FANTASTIC!
An awesome drive pedal! I run it into the front of a Marshall DSL40CR in Green channel. WOW! I honestly didn't think I'd ever find a drive that would trump my 5150 OD. But this one does! Don't get me wrong, The 5150 is still on my board but I
am using the REVV almost 90% of the time now. It can get nicely overdriven without losing articulation. Massive pedal...LOVE IT! Thanks Josh Pippin!
