Transparent when you work out why it's flawed
Sethguitarman 10.12.2022
So initially I thought this preamp sucked the tone massively from my musicman style pickup, making it quite boxy / dead. Then I realised that at centre detent the EQ is actually sucking half the bass and treble out of the mix. When both hi/low are at 100% my pickup was back to sounding as it should (with a nice quiet transparent boost). So really you need to leave it at 100% and the roll back the bass for a treble boost, and roll back the treble for a low pass. A proper designed preamp should be effectively bypassed at the middle position, this is not. hence the three stars.

However when you know this it can be used quite effectively, if you're good at soldering the stacked potentiometer can be replaced with two seperate hi & low pots. The volume control is very smooth and linear which is great.

Basic stuff

I didn't have big expectations about this preamp, but price was ok to my project. Sound is quite neutral, maybe little bit better, than I thought (big booms and hights, but neutral in middle). This amp died after few weeks, and got new, this has worked since I got it... about year. Good value for money.
