Pigtronix Bob Weir’s Real Deal Acoustic Guitar Preamp Pedal w/ Power Supply

Developed in collaboration with Bob Weir (Dead & Company, RatDog), the Real Deal Acoustic Preamp captures Weir’s famously natural, powerful, and feedback-resistant acoustic tone in a compact stompbox. For decades, Bob relied on a complex rack system to achieve his signature sound—Pigtronix distilled that approach into a pedal that’s easy to use on any stage or in the studio.

At the heart of the Real Deal is a dual complementary filter design that delivers an authentic “unplugged” acoustic feel at performance volumes, dramatically reducing feedback without choking your dynamics. The result is a clear, warm, and present acoustic tone that cuts through a full band mix while still sounding natural and musical.

Designed to be highly versatile, the Real Deal works seamlessly with passive piezo pickups, active systems, magnetic pickups, and hybrid setups that include onboard microphones or contact elements. Whether you’re struggling with feedback, lack of definition, or thin-sounding amplification, this pedal provides studio-quality acoustic tone in a road-ready format.
