Benson Amps Preamp

Impart Rich Harmonics With Extreme Versatility – The Benson Amps Preamp

Benson Amps calls this their Preamp because it is! The circuit is based on the their Chimera 30 watt guitar amplifier, but substitutes FET transistors for the vacuum tubes. The result is an extremely amp-like and versatile clean boost/overdrive/fuzz pedal that imparts rich harmonics and a very musical EQ to your signal chain…truly a Chimera in a box!
