The TC Electronic Ampworx V550 is a twin-channel guitar preamp pedal built around a faithful recreation of the tone, touch and feel of the legendary MK1 Script Logo 5150 tube amp from 1992. A Green channel (Rhythm + Crunch) runs from pristine cleans through to hard rock crunch, while the Red channel (Lead) delivers high gain for heavy rock, classic shred and metal tones, each with independent gain, volume and EQ. An integrated boost circuit adds 5 dB of level at the kick of a footswitch, switchable between PRE (drives the amp model harder, adding a mid hump like a classic overdrive pedal in front of the amp) and POST (a transparent clean volume lift) modes on the rear panel. Dedicated DI and headphone outputs carry the official Celestion 4x12 G12M Heritage cab simulation IR for direct-to-desk recording, silent practice and front-of-house feeds, while a Line Out lets you run into an amp or an external cab IR loader without the onboard cab sim. A rear-panel PRESENCE control tailors the pedal to darker or brighter rigs and rooms, and it can run in always-on Dual Channel mode or a classic Bypass Mode via its BOOST and CHAN footswitches.
