Last weekends project complete, I swapped out the LH3 preamp for an Audere classic 4 band (go figure) & couldn't be happier!
No more poppin the lid to make adjustments, all them meaty mids are now at my fingertips.
This has unleashed the beast & this sucker is meaner that ever!
Configured Vol, Bal, Hi Mid, Low Mid, Bass/Treb (stacked pot) & beast mode switch (coil tap).
I think the LH3 is a good preamp the -94 series as it adds a lil sumthin to that configuration.
It just didn't work for me in the -07 or the active Decade w/chi-buckers, those pickups don't need any help.
It sounded nasally, almost like the sound was coming out of a tunnel or a tube or sumthin.
Didn't matter what frequency I used it had that sound, bummed me out.
The Audere 4 band lets the pickups speak for themselves, it only boosts/cuts what's already there.
Dare I say a frequency adjustable passive preamp?

No colorization, just the flexibility to enhance what your pickups are already sayin.
After all isn't it the Dark Stars, Aeros, Lindys, Chi-buckers etc that we lust after in the first place?
Next project, figure out how to record & share.
