DEATH Preamp Pedal (Hammered Enclosure)

DEATH THE FINAL WORD IN HIGH GAIN. !ONLY FOR USE WITH 9v POWER SUPPLIES! This is the hammered enclosure variant, which features a detailed enclosure, reminiscent of the old school death metal albums that inspired this pedal. Meet DEATH, the preamp pedal built for guitarists who want the sound of a full high gain tube amp and not a polite imitation of one. It recreates the phase, filter, and gain behavior of the real thing, then adds the power amp response and EQ to finish the job. Run it into a clean amp, a power amp, an interface, or the front of a mixing console. Nothing survives DEATH. Death is at its best when it's being ran with your favorite boost, like our OD THE DEVIL. Boost it with your favorite pedal and experience tonal bliss. Why DEATH Kills: Gain Stages Modeled On Real High Gain Tube Amps Most pedals just clip. DEATH recreates the phase, filter, and gain of actual high gain tube amps, so you get the touch, tightness, and snarl of a real amp channel. 9V USE ONLY! (36V Inside) Power it with a standard 9V DC supply and nothing else. No 18V brick, no special adapter. DEATH creates 36V internally, which gives you tube amp headroom and dynamics from a single, simple connection. Super High Output, Active Output Stage An active output stage drives hard into anything you plug it into. Slam the front of an amp, feed a power amp, or hit your interface with a signal that doesn’t give up. Built-In Noise Gate A preset noise gate is built in and ready to go. No knobs to fiddle with and no hiss between riffs. Hit the strings, then enjoy the silence when you stop. 3-Band Active EQ = Total Control Sculpt your tone with a high shelf, low shelf, and 1kHz mid control. Low Shelf: Tighten the chug or add earth shaking weight. Mids (1kHz): Push leads forward or scoop for crushing rhythm tones. High Shelf: Add bite and slice through the mix. ±16dB of cut or boost per band covers everything from aggressive distortion to full preamp voicings. Power Amp Simulation Realistic Presence and Depth controls recreate the way a power amp pushes and pulls on your tone. A REACTIVE VOLUME CONTROL responds like the real thing, so turning it up changes the feel as well as the loudness. Preamp / Distortion Switch One pedal, two weapons. Use DEATH as a full preamp or as a ferocious distortion in front of your amp. Bite Switch Need more edge? Flip the Bite switch to boost the highs or the high mids, depending on how much cut you want. Contour Contour changes the way the Treble pot behaves, so you can reshape the top end and dial in the exact voicing your riffs demand. Footswitchable Boost Mode With Dedicated Gain Stomp on the boost and DEATH adds an additional gain stage with its own gain control. Lead tones, solos, and mid song escalations are one step away. ALL THE TONE. ONE PEDAL. Why build a rig around a preamp, an EQ, a noise gate, a boost, and a power amp sim when DEATH does all of it? Compact, pedalboard ready, and powered by a plain 9V supply, it holds the whole signal chain in one enclosure. DEATH doesn’t just color your tone. It replaces your preamp and delivers the searing yet articulate high gain you've been looking for. Choose DEATH. Warning! ONLY FOR USE WITH 9v POWER SUPPLIES
