SOLD Fender TBP1 Tube Preamp

Recommended Posts

I already own 2 Tubeheads and this Fender Preamp was meant to be some kind of a backup and my amp for playing at home.
I thought for some gigs i will need a lightweight amp, if i don`t wanna carry a lot. But i always want to have my tube amps with me..so this preamp is max played 10 times, so is the condition giving a 9,9/10.
I formerly owned preamps of ampeg, trace elliot, swr, etc etc and none of them were in the near of this fender preamp. it is the best sounding tube preamp i have ever heard. Additional to the sound, it has some great features, which make the fender preamp the best choice for recording or live gigs.
It is in perfect condition and comes including the footswitch, you can control the overdrive channel, fx loop, vari-q (some kind of parametric eq) and mute.
I have no price in mind and i will be glad, hearing offers from you.

Specs
Channels: 2 Channels: Vintage Tube Tone and Tube Overdrive
Features: Front Panel Feature Set:
*Fender® passive tone stack (remember passive means CUT ONLY)
-Delivers that creamy tube tone
-Volume, Bass, Mid & Treble controls for the "clean" sound

*Tube Overdrive section
-Gain, Volume and Blend
-This channel sits on top of the clean (which preserves the warm clean pillow under the overdrive)
-Blend adjusts the clean vs. dirty ratio of the tone (can be set "touch-sensitive")
-Footswitchable (4-button footswitch is included)

*Vari-Q™ section - A smart semi-parametric EQ
-Cutting frequencies automatically NARROWS the focus of the Q for a well-defined cut (notch)
-Boosting frequencies automatically WIDENS the focus of the Q for a broader, more musical boost
-This intelligent Q control keeps "on the fly" operation simple and effective
-Footswitchable (4-button footswitch is included)

*Room Balance - Global EQ shift for cabinets/stage response
-Clockwise cuts lower end frequencies while simultaneously raising upper frequencies
-Counter-clockwise brings up lower end frequencies while simultaneously lowering upper frequencies
-Room Balance Does NOT affect XLR output (soundman gets unaltered signal)

*Master Volume - One level control that affects everything except Balanced Line Out, Tuner and FX Send

*Mute
-Cuts all signal except for the Tuner & FX send
-Footswitchable (4-button footswitch is included)

Rear Panel Feature Set:

Sorry for that, i paid 800,- Euro and i think 650,-Euro will be a fair price for that perfect conditon and 10 times played fender preamp.
