Preamp Pedals

Streamline your setup without compromising your tone. Preamp pedals can replace the preamp stage of a conventional amplifier in a convenient package, converting the weak electrical signal from your instrument to a much stronger one capable of further processing and tone adjustment, without affecting audio quality and whilst minimizing noise.

Featuring EQ controls and gain circuits, preamp pedals give you access to greater control over your tone, allowing you to shape your sound before it is amplified. Plus, they combine that high sound quality and full tone control with ergonomic convenience, making them a perfect choice for gigging musicians or anyone who wants additional flexibility and portability for their setup.

Depending on which pedal you choose and how you use it in your chain, a preamp pedal can function as a clean signal boost, a little extra EQ sculpting or a tool for searing overdriven tones. If you want to learn more, check out our Ultimate guide to preamp pedals.
