The One Control Purple Plexifier is the first of Björn Juhl's amp-in-a-box designs for the series, aimed at the sound of the iconic late-sixties British amplifier its name alludes to. Unlike the Strawberry Red and Lingonberry, which are overdrive circuits, this is built to reproduce a specific amplifier's voice, so it is intended to work into a clean platform rather than to push an already-driven amp. It suits classic rock players who want Plexi-era character from a pedal.
The Pasta Pedals Plexi Drive is a Marshall Plexi-style overdrive from Italian boutique manufacturer Pasta Pedals, delivering the warm, harmonically rich breakup character of vintage Marshall Plexi amplifiers in a compact pedal format. The Plexi Drive captures the singing, mid-forward crunch of classic Plexi tones for classic rock, blues rock, and British-influenced playing.
