A Legend Reborn

In 1963, history was made with the release of the Silvertone Twin Twelve Amplifier. Originally listed in the Sears catalog as the 1484, it ran from 1963 to 1967 and became the most coveted of all the Silvertone amps—powering the tones of Jack White, Dave Grohl, Beck, Billie Joe Armstrong, Dan Auerbach, and many more.

Today, Jackson Audio and Silvertone make history again with the 1484 Twin Twelve Pedal.

“Absolutely floored by this thing. I thought I was fully covered on my OD/Distortion needs. I walk into my local music store, and they say check this thing out. I plug in. Holy moly! Perfect amount of compression to gain ratio. Me and another guy bought one on the spot. Check this thing out!”
– Daniel B.

True to the Original

A recreation of the legendary Twin Twelve amplifier, the 1484 Twin Twelve Pedal can be used as a studio-grade preamp, booster, EQ, or overdrive—all depending on how you set the controls.

“Tones I didn’t realize I needed! This pedal is built like a tank, sounds like a dream, and has found a permanent place on my board. As usual, Jackson Audio delivers the goods and top rate customer service.”

"The 1484 Twin Twelve Pedal is a part-for-part recreation of the Silvertone Twin Twelve Amplifier. Not inspired by, or modeled after the original, the 1484 Twin Twelve Pedal takes the exact schematic from the legendary amplifier and replaces all of the vacuum tubes with JFET's. JFET's are a unique type of transistor that behave very much like vacuum tubes. These inherent features of JFET's are what give the 1484 Twin Twelve Pedal the same touch sensitivity and dynamic response as the original amplifier.

To gain every bit of performance and tone out of the JFET's, we built a robust power supply including a voltage doubler, which internally converts 9V to 18V so the JFET's have a much greater dynamic response and touch sensitivity when compared to pedals running at 9V.

Each one of these pedals is built by hand, using top-quality parts, including a polished stainless steel enclosure just like the original amplifier chassis. Perhaps the most iconic visual element of the Silvertone 1484 Amplifier, the knobs, were no longer being made, so we custom manufactured them to recreate the classic look, in a size appropriate to the pedal’s dimensions.

No detail was overlooked in bringing this legendary circuit back in its original form, but we didn't stop there. To offer features that players need in this era, we included a soft-click true bypass foot switch, so your bypassed tone remains intact and the loud pop of switching is a thing of the past.

Power usage: 9v DC center negative 35mA 

9v DC power supply optional.  To have one included, select the option "9v power supply included" in the power supply drop down box.
