Inspired by vintage solid-state studio microphone pre’s from the 70s and 80s, the 228 PRE is a unique design tuned for guitar using a discrete transistor topology.

The two gain controls, INPUT GAIN and OUTPUT GAIN both change the feel and character of the signal, giving a responsive feel under the fingers. The 228 PRE enhances the guitar tone like a great overdrive can, but without clipping the signal. Its like an overdrive for your clean tone.

Using the gentle-slope HF (high frequency) and LF (low frequency) controls, the signal can be shaped to suit the amp and other pedals in the chain. Slight adjustments can make your tone fat and responsive, or make some more extreme adjustments to use the 228 PRE boosting the midrange into an overdrive. Everything from full range to treble boosting is available with these controls.

The Nunchucks Dual Overdrive Distortion is a Mosfet powered dual overdrive pedal inspired by vintage drive circuits of the 1970’s. There is vintage mojo in abundance with this impedance sensitive beast. Different pickups will deliver a vast pallet of drive tones to your fingertips and earholes!

The Brass Knuckle uses an all-tube signal path to create the harmonically rich overdrive tones only tubes can.

Although based on the much-revered British amps from the late 60s to early 80s, the circuit has been modified to create everything from classic-styled crunch to searing saturated lead tones, all dripping with pleasing harmonics. This pedal does not “clean up” in the traditional sense, rather it is “driven” from the get go and responds beautifully to the player’s touch on low to mid gain settings whilst retaining harmonic content. You could say it’s always just a little angry, but can be tamed by anyone willing to explore different guitar volume settings. Of course, it’s always ready to explode back to life as soon as pick attack and/or guitar volume is increased.
