"I love the "BassRIG Super Vintage" because you can get that iconic Ampeg SVT sound, while also having a lot of options and versatility of bass tones within just one pedal."
Johnny Hiland
Cali76 - “There is no better compression pedal made on the planet!” RevivalTREM - "Unreal tone that addictively makes you want to keep playing!”
James LoMenzo
The Super Vintage has all the character of my old late 70’s Ampeg, without the threat of the inevitable amp shutdown. I loved my old 70’s SVT with the Motorola preamp tubes. The feel and tone of The Super Vintage puts it right back there for me.
Cory Wong
“I've been trying out the Cali76 in a couple of situations and it’s really cool man! I've been using it for my acoustic guitar oddly enough. It’s a great sounding pedal!”
Ian Allison
"My Cali76 is ALWAYS on. It hurts my heart to think about playing without it."
Ty Tabor
"The Cali76 has that familiar sound we all know and love in a pedal format. It's great!"
Jeff Schroeder
The Cali 76 is hands down the best compressor in a pedal format I’ve ever played. The pedal sounds absolutely gorgeous and feels very natural under the fingers. It has become an essential element of my clean sound both in the studio and in my live rig.
Wata
"I tried the Cali76 and RevivalDRIVE in the studio and l loved them. They make my tone thicker and more elegant. They'll be added to my pedalboard."
Adam Prendergast
"I use my Cali76-CB to help my basses breathe and reach their full potential. If you want vintage warmth as well as a creative tool to enhance texture... look no further."
Peter “Danish Pete” Honoré
"The Cali 76 is perfect for anything from tight funk and beautiful clean chord sounds, getting that solo to shine and making that note bloom... I love the RevivalDRIVE Compact and the way it can get those slightly broken up notes and with the blend knob I can get the perfect balance of the drive and clean signal..."
Alana Alberg
“The BASSRIG Super vintage exceeds any expectations. It is amazing how it makes you sound like you have an amp. It is fantastic that I can bring such a small gear to my gigs and recording sessions and improve the quality of my sound 100%. I particularly love the drive, that brings a spicy taste to my bass."
Mac McAnally
"I’m taking a few to brag on my new RevivalDRIVE Compact pedal. This bad boy just became my go to for distortion!"
Jasmine Star
“Origin pedals are sick! They have a ton of range, are super detailed, and keep you firmly in control of your sound”
Caleb Shomo
“Don’t feel like dropping thousands on a vintage plexi? This does the trick.”
Paul Epworth
“The SlideRIG is without a doubt the best compressor I’ve used. To say it sounds like two 1176s in series is an understatement of the sound and build of this unit.”
Yuya Komoguchi
I use the Cali76 Compact Deluxe not only as a compressor, but also as a preamplifier. It keeps nice dynamic range while I play with changing the volume level of the guitar frequently.
Kemble Walters
The BassRIG Super Vintage is a bass player's 'Swiss Army knife' wrapped in gold (well...silver and blue actually)... I love this pedal. It's never coming off my board...ever.
Russ Pritchard
“The Origin BassRig ‘64 is a beast! Once you’ve put the bass thru it, it’s hard to imagine not using it every time.”
Jonathan Jourdan
“The M-EQ let’s me push my amp into places I never thought possible, all with top notch Origin Effects build quality that is ready for punishment on tour.”
Tony Iommi
"...the closest sound I’ve found to the one I used on the first Sabbath albums."
Peter Frampton
"The RevivalDRIVE rules! I can make my amp sound like a Marshall as opposed to the Fender that it is."
Pino Palladino
Richard Fortus
“The Cali76 by Origin is THE GREATEST compressor ever made for guitar!”
Steven Wilson
"I'm a big fan of using 1176's in the studio, so it made sense for me to have the Cali76 as a pedal."
Scott Sharrard
“The RevivalDRIVE delivers on a promise that so many overdrive pedals long to do. My current rig has the RevivalDRIVE Compact which I pair with the SlideRIG, a killer combination.”
Brent Hinds
"The Deluxe 61 is awesome! I need another one of them!"
Emily Wolfe
"The Cali76 is hands-down the best compressor I've ever used. I love the option to blend in my dry signal for parallel compression..."
Nir Felder
"The new Halcyon from Origin Effects is an excellent addition to the selection of boost/drive pedals on the market. Versatile, yet unique, it's a great sounding, useful addition to any rig. I love mine! "
Mark Lettieri
"The Magma57 is a super inspiring pedal!" "I really dig the old-school crunch of the RD Compact Hot Rod. It's a killer pedal!"
Neil Westfall
"This is the best, most versatile overdrive pedal on the market. I use it with my amps and even with my Kemper. I love it!"
Mike Exeter
"Origin pedals help me get the sounds that inspire my artists to create their most enduring and passionate work.”
Valeria Falcon
“I love the Cali76 compressor pedal. It gives me presence and definition, which helps me to cut through the mix.”
Romesh Dodangoda
“The Origin pedals have been such an amazing addition to the sounds available to me in the studio. I love the huge amount of flexibility with the drive pedals, allowing me to use them in so many different ways, even straight into a cab! The Cali 76 gives me that familiar 1176 studio compression sound in a pedal! Whats not to love about that?!”
Rudy Sarzo
"...I continue to be extremely impressed by the tonal quality."
Dan Toppo
"Prior to having the Origin Effects SlideRig, I had to rely on overdrive or fuzz in order to get the sustain I wanted. As a slide player, it is important for me to be able to play multiple notes after just one pluck in order to elicit the effect of singing with the guitar."
Troy McLawhorn
"The overdrive tone of the Hot Rod Compact is great! It can go from gritty rock to high gain metal with ease. It adds a ton of versatility to my pedalboard."
Tom Doyle
“The extra depth and harmonics I get from this pedal is great. I'll be using the BassRIG Super Vintage as my fundamental sound.”
Philip Chuah
Ronnie Ficarro
“The Black Panel Bass Rig has changed the game for me! The accuracy and articulation of this pre amp gives me freedom to enhance the tone I get through my amp, or bypass the amp all together and have a killer DI tone. This rugged tour worthy box is a must have!”
Jude Smith
"The RD Compact is one of those pedals that just sounds great with little tweaking, but then if you want, it’s got the flexibility to get really detailed. Best of all is this thing just roars - one of the few pedals I’m proud to show off on my board."
Graham Coxon
"The Cali76 works really, really well on acoustic guitar as well as electric because it still stays full."
Ed O'Brien
Phil X
I think the Cali76 is the best compressor out there!
Joey Landreth
"The SlideRIG breathes so much. I know a lot of slide players like em!"
Josh Smith
“Sometimes the Plexi sound is necessary, to have it in a pedal allows me to have it just when I need it.”
Guy Pratt
"This is a great, powerful and versatile compressor. I love it."
Isaiah Sharkey
"I love the drive on the Deluxe 61. It has just the right amount of breakup."
Steve Stevens
"The Cali76 Stacked Compressor is an incredible pedal. It's impossible to get a bad sound out of it!"
Cindy Cashdollar
"The Cali76 Stacked Edition is the most true to tone and versatile dual compression pedal I've used, and it gives a heavenly sustain to slide playing."
Lee Harris
“I can use any Origin pedals knowing that they are built to last."
Sonny Landreth
“Kudos to Origin Effects for honing the design of their versatile, great sounding comp/limiter pedal. I’m impressed with the studio-grade components in a smaller package that’s both road worthy and easy to use.....Very cool.”
Lexii Lynn
"The RevivalTREM is exactly what I've been trying to find for YEARS. It does everything. This thing is a beast!"
Rachael Wolff
"Origin Effect's Halcyon Green Overdrive is my new favorite overdrive pedal. Between its versatile settings and its Adaptive Circuitry, I can dial in the perfect tone I've been chasing."
Kurt Ballou
"Wow! The Cali76 Stacked really makes your signal stay put! I'm loving it for 'post rock' guitars and smooth, classy bass tones!"
Perfecto De Castro
The RD Compact Hot Rod gives me the sound and feel of my favourite British tones but through anything I can plug it into! Amazing musical Tool!
Roland Guerin
"I can retain clarity in my bass tone while adding real VIBRATO with attitude!"
David Kim
"The Halcyon has single-handedly changed my mind about Tube Screamers. The Adaptive circuit makes the Halcyon perfect for any setting from CCM, Gospel, to Hard Rock."
Asher Belsky
The musicality of the Cali76 stacked inspires me. It works so well with everything I do. Whether it’s to make a solo really soar or add some warmth and structure to my clean tone, it always seems to be the perfect fit.
Mason Nagy
"With all the great tone and feel of a vintage SVT but none of the fuss, the BASSRIG Super Vintage does it all for me."
Simon Vargas
“It’s always a pleasure to find a pedal that gets you to the sound you’re looking for in an effortless manner. I’d been doing all sorts of weird moves to try and get the sound that the BassRig gives me with just a couple of turns on the knobs. Amazing sound, cuts through the mix and kicks you in the stomach, just like it should.”
Flo Naegeli
"It really makes you want to play non-stop. This pedal provides you with a variety of very inspiring drive sounds - they are all in this little box! It has everything that I’m looking for in an overdrive pedal!“
Chris Chaney
“As someone who owns and has used Vintage Ampeg SVT’s on countless gigs and sessions, the BASSRIG Super Vintage does a meticulous job at recreating that classic tone and then some without straining my back.”
Alessandro Venturella
“I’m loving the Cali76 Compact Bass in both of my rigs. The dry and HPF really is handy.”
Ariel Posen
“I love the MAGMA57! Took it on the road and I never turned it off.”
David Grissom
“The Cali76 Compact Deluxe has landed on my board. It’s really great for fattening up single coil sounds, it's hard to believe it’s all happening in that small pedal!”
Camilla Charlesworth
“Feeling so spoilt to have this studio quality sound at my fingertips.”
Adam "Nolly" Getgood
“The Cali76 is by far the coolest sounding compressor I have ever come across that isn’t a rack studio unit.”
Tom Hamilton
Kyle Konkiel
“The Cali76 Compact Bass is literally, the best bass compressor pedal on the market.”
Nick Johnston
"I'm not usually known as a guitar player who builds his tone from pedals, but the RD Compact Hot Rod is a necessity on your pedalboard. This pedal inspires me and gives me that little boost of confidence I need to take risks and experiment with my guitar playing."
Ben Ellis
"I love vintage sounds and the Cali76 Compact Bass gives you real old school compression in a pedal. The alternative is dragging around a rack of outboard and no one will love you for that!"
Jeff Loomis
"I love my Cali 76 Compact Deluxe pedal. Immediately engaging it, it adds a glorious amount of sustain... I almost always have it in my chain for recording bass as well... This pedal will always find a place in my recordings and in live performances."
Jeff Matz
"The Cali 76 Stacked Edition sounds incredible; it really brings out the growl and punch of my bass and makes it sing. And it's amazing on guitar as well!"
Adam Goldsmith
"Worth buying simply for the drive sound alone. It's incredibly amp-like. I immediately bought two more in order to have them on all my boards for both live and studio. Fantastic job, Origin! "
Tom Leighton
Since getting my hands on the Revival Drive its opened up a whole host of new tones. Its added some real beef to my sound that I've been looking for, for a long time! The response of the controls and the dynamics of playing make it feel like a valve amp.
Ichiro
Solid, dimensional, vintage feel….this is my GO-TO pedal ! It pushes my right hand so sweet. - 76-SE
Tom Peterson
“The BassRIG ‘64 Black Panel is an amazing bass amp in a box pedal. It’s my '3rd amp' on stage and it pairs great with my live guitar and bass amps.”
