Description

The Crazy Tube Circuits Killer V is a boutique California-style preamp and vibrato pedal from the Greek builder, designed to capture the warm, clean preamp character of classic Fender amplifiers combined with an authentic vibrato effect. The discrete preamp circuit delivers the glassy, clean American tone associated with blackface Fender amplifiers, while the vibrato section adds the swirling pitch modulation of classic amp-built tremolo and vibrato circuits. Suited for blues, country, surf, and vintage American tone players seeking authentic California amp character and vibrato in a pedal format.

The Mooer Micro Preamp 020 Blueno is voiced after the Bruno Underground 30, a boutique American head built around a thick, blues-rock crunch with a looser, more vintage-feeling response than the series' metal voices.
