The Stand Alone X Analoguetube Love Bomb is an all tube Overdrive / Preamp pedal, designed by music producer Gareth Johnson of Stand Alone Productions and tube guru Simon Saywood of Analoguetube. Lovingly hand made in London, England, the Love Bomb is built from only the finest components, delivering a truly unique playing experience.

The (not so) secret to the Love Bomb's authentic amp like tone is a military spec NOS 6948 sub-miniature tube, which was originally designed to power missile guidance systems during the Cold War! Thankfully for us guitarists though, the tubes have been repurposed to deliver a plethora of satisfying tones from a clean boost, to a warm crunch, to a highly saturated, searing distortion. The Love Bomb is built like a tank too so you can be sure it will stand up against the rigours of the road time after time.

Key Features 

  • HPF – Tighten up low end with a switchable 75hz High Pass Filter
  • Overdrive – Huge gain range available from clean boost to tube fuzz
  • Bias – 6 position switch to control the Bias and gain range of the 6948 Tube
  • Sag – Fully sweepable to control the amount of Sag in 6948 Tube Output
  • LPF – 6 position high frequency filter to tailor HF response.
  • Output – High level output to tailor how your signal hits your amplifier
  • The controls are all interactive and allow complex gain structures to be achieved, thus far unavailable in a single pedal format.

Analog

Analog effects use traditional electronic circuits rather than digital processing to shape the guitar signal. They are valued for their warm, natural sound, smooth response, and organic character, making them a popular choice for players who prefer classic tones and a more immediate playing feel.

Overdrive

Overdrive pedals add warmth, grit, and natural compression to your tone, capturing the feel of a pushed tube amp. They respond dynamically to your playing, offering everything from a light bluesy crunch to full, saturated rock tones. Perfect for boosting solos or shaping your core sound, an overdrive pedal brings character and life to any setup. Whether you prefer vintage smoothness or modern bite, these pedals are essential for players who want expressive, touch-sensitive drive with plenty of personality.

preamp

A preamp is a stage in the signal chain that boosts the guitar’s signal and shapes its core tone before it reaches the power amp or recording interface. Preamp pedals and units can add gain, EQ, and character, helping define clarity, warmth, and drive while forming the foundation of a player’s overall sound.
