This pedal is based on Benson’s now famous amp-in-a-box Preamp Pedal! There only one small tweak made – The replacement of the first FET transistor with a germanium gain stage! The result is a slightly lower gain, but richer sounding and feeling of that inspiring overdrive/boost/fuzz you have always dreamed about!
Key Features
- Cut through the Mix – With the distortion also containing boost, you can be sure your riffs will be heard, and deservingly so!
- Simple Interface – Dial in the exact tone needed with the simple-to-use interface so you have more time to show off your incredible Distortion.
- Top Jacks – With the Jack Inputs on the top of the pedal, you will have more space on your pedalboard.
- Road-Worthy Chassis – With the outer shell being made from a rugged aluminium, this pedal is built to survive even the longest worldwide tours.
Benson have literally taken their Germanium Gain Stage from their own servo-biased Germanium Boost pedal, and fused it with Benson quality controls. The result is an alternate universe! Marvel at the combination of the incomparable feel of germanium with the careful equalization and tone controls of the preamp pedal.
