This pedal is becoming more and more rare. It has one of the best bass distortion sounds I've heard. $175.
A long-revered preamp classic that gives a great range of tones!

Still made almost entirely by hand, the Tech 21 SansAmp Classic Preamplifier contains a bank of eight character switches, which adjust the fine and subtle nuances of tonality, harmonics, and dynamics. A 3-position input switch gives you a choice of preamp styles: Lead (for Marshall-type preamps), Normal (for Mesa Boogie-type preamps), and Bass (for Fender-type preamps). The knob controls shape preamp contours, power amp contours, volume, and final tone.
