Meet ROY, a dual-channel tube preamp and overdrive pedal inspired by the legendary VOX AC30 Top Boost. ROY captures classic British tones, delivering sweet, chiming cleans and the signature “shattered” upper-mid breakup—all without harshness or brittleness.

At its heart is a 12AX7 tube operating at 260VDC, offering natural tube compression and a dynamic, amp-like response. ROY integrates effortlessly with other pedals, making it an excellent clean tube platform at the end of your signal chain or a standalone tone-shaping tool for your direct rig setup. Whether paired with an amp or used in a direct recording setup, it adds a rich, vintage British voice to any configuration!

Two channels, endless versatility!

ROY features two identical channels, each with independent gain and volume controls. Switch seamlessly between clean and overdrive tones at the press of a footswitch, with full control over your volume levels.

It’s like having two perfectly dialed preamps in one pedal! Just like the Vox AC30 Top Boost, ROY features a dual-band tone stack with highly interactive Treble and Bass controls, affecting the mids inversely for nuanced tone shaping. The Tone Cut control, positioned after the EQ, acts as a master treble roll-off. Shape your sound with the EQ and then fine-tune the top end to reduce any harshness while preserving your core tone.

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

Stuff About Preamp Pedals

Preamp pedals are designed to shape and boost a guitar’s core tone, often acting as the front end of an amplifier or as a complete amp-style sound on a pedalboard. They can add clean gain, warmth, EQ control, or amp-like drive, and are commonly used to improve signal strength, push an amp harder, or run directly into a power amp or recording interface. Understanding output level, EQ controls and how they interact with other pedals helps players use preamp pedals effectively in both live and studio setups.
