Shift Line Olympic MkIIIS: ~~£395~~ (sold)

First up, the Shift Line Olympic MkIIIS tube preamp. Lovely tube sound which can get gnarly with the gan turned up. I love it with a dirty boost running before it (Spaceman Saturn VI) and a compressor in the loop (the Cali76 was the perfect combo here but honourably mentions for the Empress Compressor and the PC-2A below if you really want a pillowy sound). I powered it with a Cioks with two outputs doubled to provide the requisite current (650mA). It comes with an unused power supply too though. There’s a tiny nick on the back highlighted in the photo with the arrow. More info here https://shift-line.com/olympic

SolidGoldFX Beta-V preamp & overdrive: ~~£145~~ (sold!)

For me a huge improvement on the older Beta versions, certainly more versatile and allows you to find a less dark OD sound too. Only selling as I prefer the Saturn VI and OE DCX Boost in my current set-up). https://solidgoldfx.com/products/beta-v

Effectrode PC-2A Tube Compressor: £210

I’m selling this (again…) as I have four compressors and I really don’t need that many…. 🙄

It sounds lovely. Not much more to add than that really other than it has picky power requirements (12VDC @ 600mA - Centre positive) but comes with a power supply and it can also be powered by most Cioks pedals (with the red centre positive flex cable they provide). https://www.effectrode.com/products/effects-pedals/pc-2a-tube-compressor/
