Catalinbread Epoch Bias // Guitar Preamp Pedal

Описание: The Maestro EP-3 Echoplex has undeniably played a significant role in shaping the iconic tones of rock history, and Catalinbread's Epoch Boost successfully captured the essence of its preamp in a streamlined version. Building upon this success, the all-new Epoch Bias introduces key enhancements to the circuit.

One notable feature is the Bias control, a powerful addition that simulates the impact of out-of-spec parts found in the original EP-3. By adjusting the base gain and body of the EP-3, this control imparts a nuanced character to your sound, contributing a subtle yet distinctive amount of gain that enhances the overall tonal richness.

In addition to the Bias control, the Epoch Bias boasts a new Filter control, which draws inspiration from both early and late model EP-3 units. This control allows you to tailor the pedal's response to your specific rig and tone preferences by incorporating a tasteful treble cut. This level of customization ensures that the Epoch Bias seamlessly integrates into your setup, providing the flexibility needed to achieve the desired sonic character.

With these enhancements, the Epoch Bias not only pays homage to the classic Echoplex sound but also offers a versatile platform for sonic exploration. Whether you're looking to recreate vintage tones or carve out your own signature sound, the Epoch Bias stands as a testament to Catalinbread's commitment to delivering high-quality, innovative effects pedals for musicians seeking excellence in their tone.
