Introducing the world’s first Standel-style standalone germanium preamp! This prototype features the period-correct PNP topology of the original design from the early 1960s; I designed this to be a copy of my 1965 Standel Studio XV preamp, with just a few of my own tweaks. It’s ideal for pedal steel and I’ve gotta say it sounds darn indistinguishable from the real one running it into a Quilter TB202 or Nashville 400!
Vintage tone meets modern power
