Character Plus Series
The initial release of the SansAmp Character Series occurred in 2008. These pedals celebrated various time periods through the unique personalities of specific amplifiers, totaling 8 in number. By adjusting a few controls, you could craft highly coveted sounds and customize to your liking. Each iteration, from scarce vintage treasures to bold contemporary icons, was conveyed through its own distinct tonal profiles.
Explore new tonal possibilities by incorporating additional building blocks, as certain pairings have a lasting impact and are synonymous with history - think Ralph & Alice, Fred & Wilma, Lucy & Ricky, Abbott & Costello, Bonnie & Clyde. They were all known for their dynamic and playful presence without disrupting the harmony.
With each pedal having multi-function capabilities, it's equivalent to having a stompbox within a stompbox - perfect for BOGO deals! Use the standalone amp emulation or just the effect for maximum versatility.
The Character Plus Series pedals boast versatility and worth at an affordable cost. No matter your spending habits, choose your preferred pedal or collect them all - and trade with your peers.
