The Nocturne ATOMIC BRAIN® AnalogBS-301 PREAMP for Guitar, Pedal Steel, Keys & Bass. Full Dynamic preamp booster in satin black w new OG LogoThis  all new version is now in a much smaller compact box, and single stomp! All the great sound of the DYNOBRAIN w/ an ABBY* mode that opens up the preamp for solo'ing or adding more punch/crunch to power chord. Wake up your guitar, hear your fingers through the amps speakers. Give that old amp a new reason to live :) 

A Full sonic spectrum, VINTAGE JAPANESE preamplifier that is a very reactive, and tube like dynamic enhancement for your Amp and DAW buss inserts! Notes bloom and chords ring out while keeping your guitar tone up front and pure. I've replicated a much improved, let me repeat it, Vintage Japanese 70's preamp from the ROL@ND RE-301 Tape Delay machine known as the Space Echo. that is now true bypass & loaded with hi-fidelity audio components

We've Improved the input impedence, extended the gain range & added a Bass cut that the original RE-301 didnt have, this aids in use with cranked small amp to keep the speaker from farting out AND when the Bass Cut is dialed back to 7 oclock, the tone sweep will give you a leaner, tighter modern flavor. Dial it back to 4-5 o'clock for the vintage full low mids of the original character and color. a "vintage-modern" contour if you will. 

All our preamps operate at 9v and 12v. I prefer to run mine at 9v for more texture and saturation at max gain.

note:

Average turnaround is 3 weeks at this time. it will be delivered via USPS.com Priority insured (international is DHL insured )when the build is finished. I make each one to order and the day I receive your order you are put on the build list. When the build is finished we send you a ship/track number via an email.

(*tech notes: ABBY MODE... this dB boost mode isnt acting like other drive boxes that employ cascading gain or double up on diode clipping . Its a bit of a unique approach to solve the request for a solo mode. It modifies the guitars impedance response.
The "ABBY" is opening wide the preamp gain range. Guitar solo's will stand above the band digging in at chorus intensity or even if at a turn around you want a cool melodic travis pickin pass.
The ABBY switch is taking your guitar from whatever level you have the NORMAL mode at and suddenly making everything like 35% more dynamic than it was (i dislike using "touch sensitive") so as you dig in for the solo the guitar is pushin into the amp or whatever is after it that much more. The more the normal channel gain is turned up, the more boost you will get from the "ABBY" mode. 

*toggle switches explained:

left toggle is a high presence cut that takes a little gain in that frequency down a notch. the right toggle shifts the impedance so in the up mode, it feels louder but its actually increasing sensitivity to pick dynamics.


The left toggle help in a number of ways:

1.The left presence cut smooths out the top end overcoloring when you are using dynasonics or other large bobbin single coils

2. also nice for reducing Piezo quack on acoustic instruments.

3.  useful when you have other pedals in front of it that tend to brighten your signal like a boss pedal. Boss and ibanez/maxon pedals have an "Always on" active line buffer that pushes a high presence signal through the pedal whether stomped on or off. When stuff like this hits the atomic brain, the atomic brain preamplies all other noise artifacts in front of it. Effectively doubling the unwanted frequencies or hiss or whatever before it.


The right toggle is beneficial for:

1.Master volume amps, as when you flip it into the up position ye ol' master volume amps get the same benefit as non master amps, that tend to sound better with full range preamps. its a fix'er'er for em. Plus lets you hear your fingers on the fretboard when raging the gain.

2. when using piezo pickups, they want to see a much higher input impedance at the front'ish side of a preamp pedal. this helps acoustic guitars and upright basses

3. electric basses get more growls w this flipped up as well, really cool when your the low end guy and you want the rest of your band to hear your notes instead of just feeling them.

extra feature, flip all toggles up, stomp on the abby..turn down the global gain control just a bit above unity gain and thin guitars are suddenly fuller versions of themselves w the amp. adjust the bass cut to taste, enjoy.

eh
Format: Paperback
IT's not bad at all but they're other "The Simpsons" comic books are way better. I really recommend "Belly Buster" or "Madness" from The Simpsons collection.

"I very nearly singed my bone!"--Melvin Van Horne
Format: Paperback
Another fun-packed issue of Simpsons Comics. This is the 15th issue I've bought and, with only a couple of exceptions, they are all as funny and entertaining as the television show. I've read them all multiple times. This issue is perfect for the Sideshow Mel fan because he is featured in a short that documents how and why he became Sideshow Mel and he is also the hero in another comic. Jimbo Jones fans will like the short about how he became a bully (he wasn't always one). Dr. Hibbert also has a short feature. Here's what this issue has to offer: "Simpson/Sideshow Sibling Smackdown": Cecil Terwilliger and Lisa have something in common--they can't escape from the shadows of their attention-grubbing older brothers. Can they find a rapport even as one is intent on destroying the other? "A Recipe for Disaster"--Marge needs a new dish for the church social pot luck and tries recipes written by "Springfieldian citizens of questionable character." "Homer's Run"--Bart becomes owner of a demanding falcoln ("I have to do everything for him. What a stupid bird") while Homer signs up for early retirement on the Hawaiian Island Garbagio--which looks (and smells) just like it sounds. "Secret Origin of Sideshow Mel"--The background story of how and why Melvin Van Horne became Krusty's sidekick (you won't believe what Mel's occupation was before he replaced Sideshow Bob). "Day of the Nerd"--Lisa finds out the truth about NASA's exploration of Mars. Meanwhile, the other geeks of Springfield compete in feats of nerdome to win the inheritance of the largest collector of TV/movie&comic book memorabilia. Interesting and unique but jumps around a lot. "Bummer Vacation"--Short about Bart's summer (his batting swing looks totally wrong) and then writing a report on it that Mrs. Krabbapal doesn't believe. "Laughter is the Worst Medicine"--Homer competes in a competitive eating contest, "The Gorge in the Gorge." As Krusty says, "Chewing is for losers! Once you swallow, it's the colon's problem." After eating the final hot dog, something goes horribly wrong. Meanwhile Krusty gets a real doctor's degree instead of an honorary one and sick people start lining up at his door. "Down Home Doctorin' Time with Doctor Julius Hibbert"--Short about Dr. Hibbert as a TV doctor forced to change the style of his show to get better ratings. Ends very abruptly. "The Permanent Record Room!"--Principal Skinner shares some stories (school stories, not war stories). (1) "Pranks But No Pranks"--Bart plays a joke on Groundskeeper Willie which has the janitor believing he's a superhero. (2) "And the Beatings Go On"--The origin of Jimbo Jones. No, he wasn't always a bully. (3) "Truant or False"--Lil' Homie gets hooked up with a young miscreant(who would grow up to become a prominent figure in Springfield). Homer thinks he's learned a valuable lesson from the breif time he spent with this rebelious kid, but perhaps it is the rebel who changes his ways. Sidenote: they wouldn't have had Noiseland Arcade if this comic was accurate. Homer's mother is in this comic and she left the family in 1969. "The Many Faces of Bob"--Sideshow Bob is released from prison but is hit by a Duff Beer truck on his way out and has to undergo plastic surgery. Bart and Lisa try to figure out who Bob could be posing as before he gets his revenge on Bart. "Homer vs. The Raccoon I & II"--I'm not sure why this was divided into two parts; it's just an 8-page short. Anyway, Homer tries to capture a raccoon that has been going through his trash.

If you like the Simpsons, this collection has some really entertaining tales that fit in with the world of the show. Awesome
