Product Description

If you're a fan of big, fat clean to edge of breakup tones, the Steel String Supreme SR (Slight Return Edition) Overdrive will offer all the fullness you're looking for. Voiced like Stevie Ray Vaughan's famous Dumble Steel String Singer amplifier, it's often described as a black panel Fender amp on steroids — with a huge low-end, punchy compressed mids and chimey, present top-end. 

Here's what Vertex say about their SSS SRE Pedal:

When it comes to Texas-style glassy clean and fat lead tones, the Vertex Effects Steel String Supreme (Slight Return Edition) — based on serial #001 of a legendary six-figure Dumble Steel String Singer — is the only tone-shaper you'll need in your arsenal. Whether you're front-ending a stage amp with the Supreme expanded all-analogue preamp, feeding a little Texas sugar into your Amp Modeler, or even running straight into a Cab Simulator/IR Loader, this pedal is guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Just like the amp it's named after, the Steel String Supreme (Slight Return Edition) is characterized by a fat and glassy tones sound that absolutely marinates signals in tube-like harmonics as you ramp up the gain. The Slight Return Edition's active EQ and Bright/Deep + Rock/Jazz switches add new tone-shaping capabilities from the original SSS and bring you a bit more available top end "glass" and a little more low-end "snap" to this latest addition to the Steel String family. From subtle fattening and clean compression to full-on overdrive, the Vertex Effects Slight Return Edition is the next best thing to having the real-deal SSS in your rig.

Key Features

  • Based on model #001 of an original run of legendary 6L6 blues machines.
  • A true amp in a box — designed to go into tube amp or direct to Cab Sim/IR Loader.
  • Inspiring glassy touch sensitivity, warmth, and low-end snap.
  • Versatile Gain and Level controls make this a capable clean boost or full-on overdrive.
  • Re-shaped EQ, Bright/Deep switch, and Rock/Jazz switch for the perfect "Texas Tone" compared to the original SSS.
  • Rugged steel housing.
  • Authentic D-style aesthetics, resembling an iconic Texas Bluesman's amp.
  • True bypass switching.
  • Designed in California.

The SRV tone in a box - this pedal is great have managed to set it to a perfect Mayer/SRV Dumble tone and works amazingly well in tandem with PRS Silver Sky SE and JHS Bonsai through Fender Blues Junior. For money it sounds very very close, if not facsimile to Continuum era tone.
