DYNOBRAIN™ BS-301 preamp ( from 301 space echo / formerly called the Brain Seltzer )

the Nocturne  ((( DYNOBRAIN™ BS-301 preamp ))) based off the RE301 space echo preamp

In the fall of 2008, I built the very first replica preamp of the long defunct, vintage Roland RE-301 Space Echo from the late 70's. A life long pursuit of Brian Setzer's tone led me to the vintage space echo that he used between his guitar and amplifier.(name referenced for educational research purposes only).  While that classic neo rockabilly and swing sound peaked my desire to create a small portable version of the Space Echo, I also want this dynamic preamp pedal to better let you hear your fingers on the fretboard w clarity and command a faster and fuller sonic response from your amp, at real world club and studio levels.

This preamp provides a high fidelity catalyst between a wide range of guitars and amplifiers for a multitude of instrumentalist and styles of music.                                       This is The DYNOBRAIN Preamp pedal for your Electric Guitar.  I build my effect pedals for the best sonic relevance to bridges modern convenience w vintage aural authenticity.

For your Electric Guitar, I've replicated a much improved Vintage Japanese 70's preamp from the RE-301 Tape Delay machine known as the Space Echo.  A Full sonic spectrum, preamplifier that is true bypass & loaded with hi-fidelity audio components.

We've Improved the input impedence, extended the gain range & added a Bass cut that the original RE-301 didnt have, this aids in use with cranked small amp to keep the speaker from farting out AND when the Bass Cut is dialed back to 7 oclock, the tone sweep will give you a leaner, tighter modern flavor. Dial it back to 4-5 o'clock for the vintage full low mids of the original character and color. a "vintage-modern" contour if you will.

Worth a mention: The original Toshiba linear Op Amp was not magic, only special feature at that time was that is was low noise for 70's standards, but moving to a more modern version of this single opamp in the 8dip format, you will get less noise, and wider bandwidth and less distortion at higher saturation points. The option for the original NOS chip is available, but the right way to go to my experienced ear and thousands who use the Brain Preamp in pedalboards around the globe, is the modern chip I use in this preamp. Sounds kind of haughty, but thats not why I'm pointing it out. I simply want to make sure you realize you are getting the best version of this vintage Japanese preamp found in an RE-301 space echo.
