About this listing
This is a Hudson Broadcast Dual Footswitch Class A Germanium Pre-Amp pedal and it’s capable of everything from a boost to fuzz-territory. It sounds especially great with a Marshall, in my opinion. This one is a limited edition black body with black knobs made for Gear Hero. This pedal was played less than 10 times and was only on a pedal board for a short time and spent the rest of its years in the original box (included). There is nothing wrong with it - in fact it sounds incredible - I just didn’t have space for it on my board and had a couple of other pedals that did similar things. It’s an incredible and rare edition of a great pedal and deserves to be in the hands of someone will use it. It is in excellent condition and shows almost no wear.This is not the version that can only be run at 9v - this one can be run anywhere between 9v - 24v. Higher voltage = greater headroom.This is what the website says about the pedal:BROADCAST – dual foot switchWe’ve taken the great sound of the Broadcast and added the extra flexibility of foot switchable gain modes and separate level controls – for those who like to switch gain modes on the fly.We have made the gain mode (LOW or HIGH) select-able via the right hand foot switch (the green LED indicates when the pedal is in HIGH gain mode). Each mode its own LEVEL control and in addition, the pedal has two internal trimmers that allow you to fine tune the amount of gain each mode has.The Broadcast is a transformer coupled, discrete Class-A germanium pre-amplifier based on the classic broadcast consoles of the 1960s. In the low-gain setting, the Broadcast can cover everything from sparkling clean boost through to transparent overdrive, all with a healthy dose of volume available to push your amp. The Broadcast features a specially selected Triad steel-core transformer and a Germanium transistor. Advancing the gain on the Broadcast starts to saturate the transformer and the pedal’s discrete circuitry, giving rise to a gentle and dynamic compression coupled with subtle thickening of the mid-range. With the gain switch in the high setting and the trim control wound up, the Broadcast starts to deliver heavier distorted sounds with a warm and fuzzy edge to them. The Broadcast covers a wide range of driven and distorted tones whilst remaining dynamic, responding well to pick attack and the subtle nuances of every player.
