From sparkling cleans to singing sustain — explore the sonic universe of Trainwreck Express with a compact, responsive, and highly tweakable pedal. T‑Express: the journey begins.
The T-Express is an analog overdrive/preamp designed to recreate the organic and dynamic experience of the famous Trainwreck Express amplifiers. Renowned for their unique expressiveness, these tube amps are extremely touch-sensitive and offer a smooth transition from clean to crunch to saturated distortion — all simply by adjusting your guitar’s volume knob.
The T-Express captures the sonic DNA of the Trainwreck Express amps, known for their explosive dynamics and expressiveness:
Uncompressed clarity, sharp attacks, and sparkling highs
Rich harmonic texture and singing sustain
Progressive overdrive highly sensitive to playing dynamics and guitar volume
Precise mids, controlled lows, detailed but never harsh highs
Cleans up perfectly with the volume knob for bright, clear tones
It is a lively overdrive that responds to every nuance of your playing, just like a true boutique tube amp.
Inspired by the legendary and now unavailable Ethos TWE-1, the T-Express offers a modern, reliable, and fully analog solution. It captures the soul of the Trainwreck circuits, with nervous, explosive, and nuanced power, combining rich mids, natural compression, and an immediate response to the player’s touch.
Teos Music revives this legendary circuit with a 100% analog version built with through-hole components (no SMD) — for a more natural, dynamic sound faithful to the spirit of vintage tube amps.
