228 PRE

The 228 PRE from Electron Brothers is a discrete transistor microphone preamp designed specifically for guitar, drawing inspiration from vintage solid-state studio gear of the 70s and 80s. This pedal enhances your clean tone, providing a touch of warmth and character without introducing clipping. Musically, the 228 PRE delivers a responsive feel, similar to an overdrive pedal, allowing you to shape your sound effectively. The high-frequency and low-frequency controls offer versatility in tonal shaping, enabling you to create anything from rich, full tones to bright, treble-focused sounds. Adjustments to the gain settings further enhance the pedal’s responsiveness, making it a valuable addition to your setup.
