the Dark Father preamp

A preamp pedal with vintage overdrive, lo-fi fuzz, two boosts, and eq. With a classic overdrive style, modeled after the original DoD 250 preamp. Crank it up for a heavy overdrive or use it as a clean tone. The silicon boost, and the germanium diode hybrid boost. Can give your natural tone that extra transparent boost you want without over-saturation. Or maybe just our new lo-fi fuzz is all you need. With a retro gritty tone, it will never disappoint. 

Pedal instructions:    Use the pedal in preamp mode or boosts mode. Boosts work independently from the preamp and not at the same time. Lo-fi fuzz can be used with either the preamp or boosts.  Only use engage one boost at a time. Boost cannot be stacked.
