800 Model
The Kool Tubes 800 Model is a delightfully unique take on the classic tube-driven boost pedal. While many such pedals aim for a smooth, transparent tone, the 800 Model revels in its bold, unapologetic character. At its heart lies a pair of hand-selected 12AX7 preamp tubes, meticulously biased to deliver a gloriously thick, harmonically-rich overdrive. Crank the Gain knob and you're rewarded with a snarling, touch-sensitive response that can push your amp into glorious saturation. But don't mistake this for a one-trick pony - the Tone control allows you to dial in everything from smooth, creamy midrange to biting, cutting treble. What really sets the 800 Model apart, though, is its impressively versatile Boost function. Far more than a simple volume boost, it acts as a flexible preamp, allowing you to shape your overall tone before it hits your amp. Need a boost for solos? Dial it in. Want to fatten up your rhythm tone? The 800 Model has you covered. The controls are intuitive and responsive, giving you the power to fine-tune your sound with precision. Beloved by blues and classic rock aficionados, the Kool Tubes 800 Model has graced the pedalboards of many renowned guitarists, including the legendary Stevie Ray Vaughan. Its unique blend of tube warmth, harmonic complexity, and flexible boost make it a must-try for any player seeking to add a touch of vintage vibe to their rig.
