{"product_id":"tsakalis-room-40-385157","title":"ROOM #40","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Condensed \"Marshall Vibe\": From Plexi Tradition to the JMP \/ JCM800 Era\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Room #40 was born from Tsakalis' experience with classic Marshall amps, often encountered in the workshop for repair or customization. The goal is clear: to capture the mojo of legendary heads and make it accessible in a compact pedal, without losing the organic response that makes a pushed stack so charming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to a JFET architecture designed to reproduce the behavior of iconic amplification stages, the Room #40 covers both the spirit of Marshall amps without Master Volume (PLEXI Super Lead and Super Bass) and the more modern approach with Master Volume (JMP and JCM800). Two worlds, one signature: from tight crunch to singing drive, with a real amp-under-the-fingers feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho and In What Context Does the Room #40 Make a Difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis overdrive\/boost pedal is aimed at guitarists who want a \u003cstrong\u003ebig rock sound\u003c\/strong\u003e that's credible without relying on a specific amp. It suits both intermediate players and seasoned musicians, as its controls allow moving from a very dynamic \u003cstrong\u003eedge of breakup\u003c\/strong\u003e to a denser drive for riffs and leads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn terms of styles, it excels in \u003cstrong\u003eblues-rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eclassic rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ehard rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, and anything requiring articulate saturation with character. On stage, it can serve as the main drive channel on a clean amp or as a \"second channel\" on an already crunchy amp. In the studio, it shines for layering guitars: you can quickly sculpt mids and presence to find the right place in the mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwo \"19 \/ 22\" Modes, Variac, and Boost: A True Preamp in Pedal Format\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Room #40 offers \u003cstrong\u003etwo types of Marshall-style circuits\u003c\/strong\u003e via a selector: the \u003cstrong\u003e19 (PLEXI)\u003c\/strong\u003e mode favors openness and vintage grain brightness, while the \u003cstrong\u003e22 (JMP \/ JCM800)\u003c\/strong\u003e mode delivers more perceived gain, compression, and sustain-ideal for beefier rhythms and sustaining solos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts \u003cstrong\u003e3-band EQ\u003c\/strong\u003e (bass, middle, treble) is complemented by a \u003cstrong\u003epresence control\u003c\/strong\u003e that's very useful for adapting the treble to the guitar\/amp pairing: you can tame a too-bright combo or awaken a darker amp without making the sound harsh. The big plus is the \u003cstrong\u003eVariac\u003c\/strong\u003e (7.5 V to 21 V): lowering the voltage yields a softer attack and \"spongy\" compression\u0026#59; raising it results in a tighter, more expansive sound with more headroom and a more \"amp-like\" feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, the pedal includes a \u003cstrong\u003efootswitch-activated gain boost\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003ededicated internal trimmer\u003c\/strong\u003e to precisely adjust the amount of boost: perfect for cutting through the band on leads, thickening a chorus, or pushing the input of an already borderline amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Room #40 delivers a \u003cstrong\u003eMarshall-typed saturation\u003c\/strong\u003e : expressive mids, a clear attack, and that impression of \"gritty grain\" when picking hard. In PLEXI mode, you get an open crunch, very responsive to guitar volume, which cleans up easily when rolling back the knob. In JMP \/ JCM800 mode, the texture tightens up, becomes more compressed, with longer sustain and articulation ideal for palm mutes and rock riffs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Variac allows fine-tuning the feel: low voltage for more pronounced compression and a \"brown\" drive, high voltage for a firmer, more defined, and punchier response. The result: a pedal that doesn't just \"color\" but also reproduces the \u003cstrong\u003ecompression and rebound\u003c\/strong\u003e associated with a pushed amp, while remaining easy to integrate on a modern pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffects\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBoost, Overdrive\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esector\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eAnalog\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eelectric guitar\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePedal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e3 channels\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMode 19\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePLEXI\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e314 g\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:9;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMode 22\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eJMP \u0026amp;
