With over 100dB of outrageous gain, this tube preamp has two channels with the most intense distortion and power that you need to perform at full throttle! Equipped with Rocktron's unique "Scoop" control, the Gainiac lets you go from the classic sounds of the 60's and 70's all the way to the raging atomic sound of modern metal. The Gainiac 2 is our latest version of this world famous tube preamp. Now with a more modern sound, and an extra control for the clean channel (separate master volume). And BONUS - more headroom so you get even more gain than ever before!! Featuring the most effective EQ section ever devised, the Gainiac allows over 30dB cut, or "scooping" of the midrange used with the bass (Bottom control) and treble (Top control) as needed by your cabinet. Guitar tones just can't get any heavier. ( In the Gainiac 2, Rocktron has improved the mid scoop on the distortion!) Back off the Scoop control and your sound rolls up into a much fatter, rounder sound. The Gainiac 2 adds three band EQ to the clean sound as well and the clean sound now runs through the tube for more warmth! Join the legion of Gainiac maniacs and increase the pallete of tones you're stuck with in that combo amp of yours by adding the Gainiac 2 to your setup. The Gainiac is easy to hook up and use.
