Arkham Oracle Bass Preamp V1 – Excellent Condition
Selling my Arkham Sound Oracle V1 bass preamp. This unit is in great cosmetic and working condition.
The Oracle is a boutique, American-made tube bass preamp inspired by the classic 1960s Ampeg Portaflex amplifiers. It was designed and hand-built by Arkham Sound in Maine.
At the heart of the circuit is a carefully selected 12AX7 vacuum tube operating at a full 300V B+ voltage. Unlike starved-plate tube designs found in many pedals, the Oracle operates at proper tube voltages to deliver genuine tube preamp characteristics.
The Oracle features a versatile passive James EQ circuit, offering extensive tonal shaping with Gain, Master, Treble, Bass, and Range controls. Additional switches provide high-frequency enhancement, midrange and low-frequency boosts, and a high-pass filter. The Range control allows you to sweep the EQ’s center frequency from 150Hz to 1kHz.
