Classic rock was due an upgrade

Decades of playing, studying and abusing tube amps, distilled into two untameable rock machines that deliver sparkly clean to shamelessly dirty tones. Completed by a collection of original SFX and cabs, fedZEP has you covered for all things rock.

    fedZEP first amp

    The 'real' guitar experience, seamlessly made digital

    fedZEP is built around real playing and real feel. Instead of bringing yet another attempt at recreating existing analogue circuits to the digital market, we set out to create something new: an original pair of rock amps with true-to-life response, refined in the only way amps should be, with hands and ears.

    These amps, pedals and effect units capture familiar characteristics of legacy hardware and evolve them into a modern, versatile all-rounder that responds to your playing like a tube amp should, keeping the tone glued to your fingers thanks to our signature zero latency.

    This collection of unique original designs has been shaped by passion forged over twenty years of playing tube amps, from bedrooms to recording studios to live festivals. With fedZEP, you get the whole package.

    fedZEP second amp

    Two bold amps with infinite flexibility

    CLEAN

    CLEAN takes tone sculpting to a new level. VOL1 controls front-end bite and attack saturation, while VOL2 builds harmonic density and sustain, taking you from pristine clean to touch-sensitive breakup.

    Fine-tuned BASS, MIDDLE and TREBLE controls are completed by MASTER plus wide-reaching PRESENCE and DEPTH, with advanced settings for deeper tone shaping.

    CRUNCH

    CRUNCH explores distortion from chunky rhythm tones to huge walls of rock guitars. GAIN1 drives front-end attack and grind, while GAIN2 adds body, sustain and bloom.

    Its BASS, MIDDLE and TREBLE stack works in tandem with more aggressive PRESENCE and DEPTH controls, giving you maximum flexibility to chase the exact distorted sound in your head.

    ADVANCED

    HPF: Shapes the low end hitting the amp. Turn it on for a tighter front end, or leave it off for more low-end weight into the gain stage.
    TIGHT: Reduces low-mid buildup for a cleaner, more focused tone.
    BRIGHT: Adds a classic bright-cap lift for extra attack and presence.
    SAG: Adds power-stage compression for a softer, more driven feel when the master is pushed hard.
    POWER AMP: Switch between EL84-style openness and chime, or 6973-style density and low-mid weight.
    SAFE: Zero-latency limiting for quick peak control, keeping the signal below 0dB.

    Henrique Garcia
    I've never used anything like the fedZEP. When I played it for the first time, it was as if I were playing on a real amplifier. The dynamics of a real amplifier.
    Henrique Garcia Guitarist · 3x Latin Grammy Winner
    Mitch Clews
    What impressed me most is how immediately playable it is. The tones are articulate, responsive and musical from the first note.
    Mitch Clews Guitarist · Nightdive, Dean Lewis, Ruel
    Kai Smith
    I'm absolutely loving the plug-in! Really stunning!
    Kai Smith Charli XCX, Dua Lipa, Zara Larsson
    Sam Winfield & Tom Millar
    This has fast become our go-to amp for clean tones. It reacts wonderfully to pedals and has beaten many other options, both hardware and software, in several sessions!

    Pedals

    SNAPPER

    SNAPPER

    Time to squash or snap. SNAPPER is built around an original circuit that captures the snappiness of OTA compressors. With variable linked attack/release, a soft analogue-sounding saturation, the pedal has all it takes to handle your transient and dynamics before the front end of the amp.

    ELEGANTE

    ELEGANTE

    More than just distortion, ELEGANTE offers direction. A TS-style stage before your amp tightens the lows, adds a mid push that keeps riffs articulate and clear, and lifts leads smoothly without fizz.

    MORSO

    MORSO

    Inspired by classic guitar pedals from the 70s and 80s, MORSO delivers thick and unruly distortion in two distinct flavours, with a switch toggling between vintage fullness and aggressive top-end clarity.

    Built-in FX racks

    ECO DELAY

    ECO DELAY

    ECO DELAY draws from the tape echoes of the 70s and 80s, where repeats carry tone and movement, sometimes in unpredictable ways. Sync it to your session BPM, run it mono or stereo, and set it from tight, barely-there slapback to long trails that stay musical as they decay.

    Push feedback past 100% for self-oscillation, then add as much character as you want with switchable vibrato/chorus modulation and a dedicated depth control.

    Whole Lotta Verb

    Whole lotta verb

    WHOLE LOTTA VERB is a custom space between plate and hall, custom-programmed to inspire and designed to shimmer and breathe on its own.

    It can sit as a quiet halo around the source or open into a deeper, immersive bloom. Shape it even further with HP/LP filters to keep the tail as lush as you need.

    DOUBLE DENIM CHORUS

    DOUBLE DENIM CHORUS

    DOUBLE DENIM CHORUS adds width and motion without blurring the performance. Classic Rate/Depth/Mix controls take you from gentle thickening to obvious modulation.

    Flexible placement lets you decide how it interacts with the rest of the chain. Put it before the ambience to let it bloom into the rest of the chain, or move it to the end for a cleaner, polished stereo finish.

    Cabs & EQ

    EQ

    EQ

    fedZEP boasts an 8 band graphic equaliser, featuring high pass and low pass filters, and giving you everything needed to shape tone quickly without reaching for extra plugins.

    UNMUD acts as a dynamic palm mute suppressor that tames muddy frequencies and unruly bass buildup, helping you keep low end focused and controlled.

    Dual Cabs

    Dual cabs

    We've captured and curated 25 custom speakers specifically for fedZEP, tuned for the wide range of tones this workhorse can create. Cycle through them or load your own IRs, with phase flip and time alignment tools to shape the blend to taste.

    Play through one or two cabs with blend and individual level controls, then add space with the Room slider. Need a push in a new direction? Hit RANDO and let fedZEP spark unexpected combinations.
