Description
Introducing the Benson Amps Preamp Overdrive - a powerhouse of tone and versatility. This incredible pedal features a circuit inspired by the renowned Chimera 30-watt guitar amplifier but with an innovative twist: FET transistors replace traditional vacuum tubes. The outcome is an incredibly amp-like, versatile pedal with rich harmonics and a wonderfully musical EQ. It's like having a Chimera amp that fits in your pocket!
Key Features:
-Premium circuit based on legendary Chimera 30-watt guitar amp
-Bass and Treble controls provide ample sonic versatility
-Wide Gain Range from clean boost to overdrive and fuzz
-Compact, durable, and stylish enclosure
Despite its simple 4-knob interface, the Preamp Overdrive has an extensive tonal range. The Treble and Bass controls are your bread and butter - boost the treble, and you'll conjure that classic Chimera warmth and sparkle. Crank the bass, and this stompbox will go from delivering a deeply scooped chime to a mid-rich growl that harkens back to the golden era of British amplifiers.
The Drive control is the Preamp Overdrive's secret weapon, courtesy of its massive gain range. Need a clean boost? Keep it low, and you'll have all the power necessary to bring life to your solos. Want a sizzlin' overdrive or a creamy fuzz? Start rolling the Drive knob past noon, and you'll have tons of grit, snarl, and aggression to play with.
Complete with an eye-catching enclosure, the Benson Amps Preamp Overdrive is the ultimate guitar pedal for musicians who want versatile, amp-like tones combined with rich and expressive dirt effects.
