Get my Guitar found the latest prices on the Synergy OS Dumble Overdrive Special 2-Channel Preamp Module.

In the world of guitar amps, there exists one legendary designer and brand that very few ever get to meet, see, or play through. This is Alexander “Howard” Dumble and his namesake Dumble amplifiers. Normally reserved to the paragon of players, you’ll find his amplifiers backing up such artists as Carlos Santana, Robben Ford, and even the late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan. No two Dumbles are the same, but it’s the Dumble Overdrive Special that continues to reign as the man’s pinnacle design. The amplifiers boast a unique sound and feel that is praised for its ability to enhance and uncover every nuance of a player’s technique and tone. It is this ability that has earned the amp a reputation for being one of the finest and most revered ever made. Because these mythical amps are extremely hard to come by, we created the Synergy OS preamp module as our tribute to its iconic sound. The OS module packs the Dumble personality and user experience in a compact format, providing affordability and convenience that the original can never match. Across the front panel, the OS features the same basic controls as the Overdrive Special amplifier. Dual footswitchable channels enable switching between the unique Dumble clean with its mid-forward clarity to the fabled smooth, singing sustain that gives the Overdrive Special its name. You’ll also find Bright, Deep and Rock/Jazz switches that, along with the 3-band EQ, will tailor your tone while always retaining the Dumble character. Finally, a master presence control adds just the right amount of clarity to the module’s OD mode. While nothing sounds or feels exactly like a Dumble, with the Synergy OS preamp module, you can possess the essence of one of the finest amps in the world alongside all of the other classic tones available from the Synergy system. Dumble is a trademark of Howard Alexander DBA Dumble Amplifier. While Synergy’s OSmodule pays tribute to the original, it is not associated or approved by, or sponsored by Howard Alexanderor his Dumble brand. Cathode Select SwitchThis three-position switch allows you to configure the input tube bass response to match the original circuit of the selected module. This will affect the feel and tightness. Each amp designer has a specific combination of components that make up their input tube circuit. Synergy selected the three most popular combinations which you can access with this switch. The module will come preset to Synergy's preferred setting which for the OS module is position two. | Synergy OS Dumble Overdrive Special 2-Channel Preamp Module

Get my Guitar found the latest prices on the Synergy Powerball 2-Channel Tube Preamp Module Black.

ENGL amplifiers have a long legacy of well-loved, precise-sounding, high-gain amplifiers. So, when they set out to make the most flexible amp for metal and hard rock, they had to beat their already incredible lineup. They achieved it in the 4-channel Powerball. While displaying all the thick, powerful punch and crunch that the brand’s built their name on, the Powerball also allows metal players to find equally inspiring shades throughout the gain range. If players are looking for a great metal amp with a ton of options under the hood, the Powerball is the place to start. Never ones to ignore a classic design, Synergy reached out to the ENGL amp designer of the Powerball head, Horst Langer to provide us with the amp’s signature swath of tones in an all-tube Synergy preamp module. The Synergy Powerball module boasts two of the amps four channels with enough control on tap to go toe to toe with the namesake head. Not only will you find the standard 3-band EQ, gain, and volume controls, but two Gain Lo/Hi and Mid Boost switches per channel put a world of these German-engineered tones at your fingertips. By partnering with such iconic amplifier brand like ENGL and the designers as Horst Langer, Synergy is able to offer you these sought after tones in all-tube designs that are perfect for the direct-recording, lower-stage-volume, and compact-guitar-rig demands of today. It’s easy to see why the Synergy preamp module system is taking the industry by storm. Cathode Select SwitchThe Powerball module features a three-position switch on the PCB which allows you to configure the input tube bass response to match the original circuit of the selected module. This will affect the feel and tightness. Each amp designer has a specific combination of components that makes up their input tube circuit. Synergy selected the three most popular combinations which you can access with this switch. The USA voiced modules typically use setting 1 (1.5K resistor and 22uf capacitor).British style modules use position 2 (2.7K resistor and .68uf capacitor).The Powerball – same as Soldano & VAI modules, uses position 3 (1.8K resistor and 1uf capacitor).Of course, you can experiment and try any of the positions to see what you prefer. The modules will come preset to the designers preferred setting which for the Powerball module is position 3 (1.8K resistor and 1uf capacitor).Dual-Single Slide SwitchThe Powerball module features a secondary switch allowing the new Synergy modules to be used in older single-channel Egnater and Randall modular amps/preamps that do not accept the dual-channel modules. This allows access to either of the module channels when that slot is turned on. You will still not be able to switch between the two channels due to the limitations of the older hardware. You can set it so either module channel one or module channel two will turn on when the slot is selected. Set to Dual when using the module in units that have the switching circuit to access both modules. If you are using a single-channel only amp/preamp, setting to DUAL will make the bottom module channel active. Set to Single will cause the top channel of the module to come on when selected. | Synergy Powerball 2-Channel Tube Preamp Module Black

Get my Guitar found the latest prices on the Synergy Soldano SLO Tube Preamp Module.

When Mike Soldano released the original Super Lead Overdrive (SLO) 100 in the 1980s the sound of rock 'n' roll electric guitar was forever changed. With industry-shifting innovations such as dual footswitchable channels and the amp's inherent focus and tone, Soldano quickly became the name you wanted on the front of your guitar rig. The man's ceaseless commitment to quality and consistency has helped maintain his position as one of the gurus of high-gain amplification. And you'll still find him personally hand-soldering Hot Rods, Decatones, and SLO-100 amps in his shop in Seattle, Washington. The Soldano SLO-100 is one of the first boutique-style high-gain amplifier heads to ever hit the market. Previous amps had hinted at the evolution of hard rock guitar tone, yet it took the mighty SLO to define its chewy distortion, tight low end, cutting highs, and full-throated mids. The proof of the SLO-100's legacy can be witnessed every time you find one still backing some of the biggest players in the world. Far from a one-trick-pony, the SLO's singing sustain has even be found backing the lyrical playing of Eric Clapton and Mark Knopfler. Whether pushing the swampy slide work of Warren Haynes, the New Wave stylings of Blondie's Tommy Kessler, or the mention that even EVH himself used to crank one up, the Soldano SLO-100 continues to prove itself as one of the premier rock 'n' roll amps of all time. The sound of a Soldano SLO-100 is an experience all high-gain fans need to experience. And thanks to the Synergy Soldano SLO preamp module, it's never been easier. But the SLO module isn't some modeling or emulation of Soldano's beloved circuit. Mike Soldano himself designed this dual 12AX7-powered preamp to elicit the same thick sound, creamy gain, and endless sustain of his original amp. With the addition of a second similarly voiced channel, the SLO Preamp Module offers two switchable voices that will take you from tight crunch to soaring lead with the push of a button. Thanks to the Synergy Soldano SLO preamp module, nailing the elusive tone of a cranked Soldano SLO-100 is easily within your reach. The Synergy SLO pre-amp module features two channels. Each channel has a gain and volume knob with a shared three band EQ. Cathode Select SwitchThe SLO module features a three-position switch on the PCB which allows you to configure the input tube bass response to match the original circuit of the selected module. This will affect the feel and tightness. Each amp designer has a specific combination of components that makes up their input tube circuit. Synergy has selected the three most popular combinations which you can access with this switch. For example, Friedman modules use position 2. The USA voiced modules typically use setting 1. The Soldano SLO uses position 3. Of course, you can experiment and try any of the positions to see what you prefer. The modules will come preset to the designers preferred setting which for the SLO module is position 3 (1.8K resistor and 1uf capacitor). | Synergy Soldano SLO Tube Preamp Module

Get my Guitar found the latest prices on the Synergy SYN-2 Dual Module Tube Preamp.

"Unlock the full potential of your Synergy preamp modules with the powerful SYN-2 Dual Module Tube Preamp. The SYN-2 unleashes your boutique tube tone in three extremely useful ways. The cabinet-simulated direct output sends your 12AX7-driven tone direct to your recording console with the exact sound and feel of a high-end tube amp. Thanks to its ability to replace an amp's onboard preamp and convenient rack-mounted design, harnessing fantastic tone onstage and on the road has never been easier. And for those of you who want to add a dose of flexibility to your current rig, the SYN-2 will integrate with your amplifier and effects, adding four more footswitchable channels to any amp with a series effects loop. Whether at home, in the studio, or onstage, rely on your Synergy SYN-2 Dual Module Preamp for harmonically rich tube tone. Going DirectBy taking advantage of the SYN-2's direct recording and performance capabilities, you'll send the real sound and feel of some of the world's most iconic tube amplifiers right to your track or front-of-house. The SYN-2's direct XLR output boasts a cabinet simulation that is second to none, offering you a studio-grade tone that is as effortless to attain as hooking up an XLR cable. Do you have your own impulse response that you'd rather use? No problem. Simply bypass the cab sim on the back of the unit. And to further dial in your tube-amp experience, Synergy engineers worked hand in hand with legendary amp designer Steven Fryette to outfit the SYN-2 with a front-mounted Sag control, supplying you with the feel and response that only a great tube amp can give. Turns Any Amp ""Boutique""Whether you’re a touring musician who relies heavily on rented amps or are just unhappy with the tone of your current rig, the SYN-2 is an answered prayer. Simply run your guitar into this preamp and plug the unit into your amplifier's series effects loop return or power amp input. You've now bypassed the amplifier's preamp, giving complete tonal control to the SYN-2. Imagine it, consistent all-tube tone on the road, night after night. With the simple swap of a module you can turn your current amp into a Diezel VH4, a Friedman BE, a Morgan AC40, or any other of the top-tier amp models represented in the Synergy line. And because each module boasts two footswitchable channels and an effects loop, you're able to effortlessly call up new tones on the fly. Add Channels to Your Existing AmpOne of the most powerful ways to utilize your Synergy SYN-2 Dual Module Tube Preamp is to add channels to the amplifier you already have. By hooking the unit to your amp's series effects loop with a straight-forward 3-cable method, you're able to footswitch between the channels on both of the installed Synergy preamp modules and your amp's built in channel(s). With the stomp of the programmable 5-button Synergy 5F footswitch you can take your amp from its own crystal cleans to your modules' fire-breathing gain. Best of all, with the SYN-2's onboard effects loop, you still have the ability to run your favorite rack and stompbox effects before or after the preamp section. Powerful Switching OptionsWith so much tonal power and so many sonic options onboard the SYN-2, Synergy made sure to offer you two flexible ways to control it. The Synergy 5F 5-button foot controller is essentially a fully programmable MIDI controller. From the factory, the first four buttons recall the channels on your preamp modules, while button 5 bypasses the unit. But with a simple procedure, you're able to program the pedal to your needs. If that still isn't enough, the SYN-2 Dual Module Tube Preamp is fully MIDI capable. And because it accepts both 5- and 7- pin connectors, it works with almost every MIDI controller out there.
