That Pedal Show – Valve, Transistor & Digital Preamp Pedals into Valve & Transistor Power Amps
Published on May 26, 2017
Duration:
0:57:41
In this episode we explore the world of simple, pedal-format preamps that can feed directly to a power amplifier. Goodbye guitar amp? Perhaps…
We’ve selected a bunch of valve, transistor and digital preamp pedals, and routed them to two power amps: one is valve, one is transistor. What can we learn along the way, and of course, how do the different technologies impress us?
