Nu-X 6ixty 5ive Overdrive Pedal: Classic '60s Tube Tones at Your Feet

Rediscover the Sound of the 1960s

The Nu-X Reissue Series 6ixty 5ive Overdrive is a love letter to the iconic black panel amplifiers of the 1960s. Designed to capture the warmth, character, and natural compression of those classic tube-driven tones, this compact pedal delivers everything from a subtle, just-over-the-edge breakup to full, burning tube overdrive — all while preserving your guitar's natural voice and articulation.

All-Analogue Circuit

At the heart of the 6ixty 5ive is a fully analogue signal path. There are no digital shortcuts here — just pure, responsive drive that reacts to your playing dynamics exactly as a vintage amp would. Roll back your guitar's volume and clean up the tone; dig in and feel the pedal breathe with natural sustain and compression.

Controls & Features

• Gain — Set the amount of overdrive, from a gentle push to full saturation
• Level — Balance the output against your clean signal
• Bass & Treble EQ — Shape your tone as you would on a classic amplifier
• Trim pot (rear panel) — Fine-tune the saturation of the gain stage for natural compression and sustain
• True bypass switching — Your signal stays pure when the pedal is off

Versatile in Any Rig

Use the 6ixty 5ive as an "always on" foundation drive, or kick it in for a classic-edged gain boost when the song demands it. It pairs beautifully with both clean and already-driven guitar effects pedals, and works equally well in front of a wide range of guitar amplifiers, making it a flexible addition to any pedalboard.
