Features:

GAIN/GERMANIUM DRIVE - A gain switch in 3dB, is the standard input level type control. The Gain interacts with the feedback control to offer a variety of tones. Driving this control tends to accent low frequency and gives a thicker tone.

FEEDBACK - The Feedback control is essential to the sound and function of this pre amp. It affects ACK - the sound and function of the amplifer in many ways. THD, frequency response, and gain change considerably with varying feedback. Using the Feedback in combination with the Gain control creates a wide range of tones - thick, bright, lots of color - choose your tone!

DI/UNBALANCED IN - This is an unbalanced input for guitar, bass, samples, etc. Simply throw the toggle switch and you're of. Jack directly into the Class A circuit to provide a tone different than a standard direct box.

Pad - Use Pad to run Gain and Feedback controls near full or increased low end and harmonic AD - distortion.

THICK - The thick adds a gentle (well maybe not so gentle!) low frequency rise for warmth and roundness. The effect varies slightly with the load on the pre amp and has a bit of life of its own!
