DoomLord SunnO))) Model T Pre- Amp
Transistor based clone of the legendary Sunn Model T Pre-Amp.
- Now available with a BOOST after the passive EQ output stage.
Original or BOOST mode is switchable. Maximum Volume Yields Maximum Results.
The DoomLord features a switch to change between Normal and Bright channel, and another switch to bridge both of the channels together, instead of 5x input jacks like the original amp.
The main thing this pedal does is it adds TONS of luscious Sub Bass to your signal. Aside from the delightful sub-harmonic content it generates, it really excels at sculpting your mids too. Great for boosting or cutting, it wisely leaves the muddy frequencies alone and gives your signal warmth when you boost or aggression when you cut.
If you put a RAT or Muff (or your favourite distortion / boost / drive) in front of it - it will sound insane !! Sounds killer with a whammy or any other octave pedal too, Hell, even a clean boost will drive it into smooth creamy ecstasy. It cleans up remarkably well and produces a nice fuzzy, bluesy overdrive on it's own when you crank it up.
It's super useful as a pre-amp / EQ at lower gain settings to warm and colour the sound of your instrument. Here's a quote from a customer (the DoomLord) "makes my guitars speak with their true voice"
Great for guitar or bass, and handles down-tuned, high gain, doom laden, sludge beast guitars like a motherfuckin' bitchwolf !!!

Customer Reviews
I got this one about a week or two ago, only just managed to get to spend some proper time with it as of a couple days ago but god damn is it insane. I keep it pretty boosted, running both Normal and Bright together. The volume on this thing is absurdly loud and I personally love that. I ran this into a Laney VH100R and an Orange Dual Dark 100 together and it was amazing. The sonic textures, sheer mass of the sound and its ability to be further boosted by other pedals is just amazing. And at a really affordable price all round. It's a whole lot of pedal for something as small as it is. Thanks Brendan!
Great pedal, looks great too.
The phenomenal sub harmonics this generates is a true joy to play with. The flexibility and variation you can achieve is just wonderful.
The pedal arrived today (coincidentally my birthday, it was a gift to myself), and I had the opportunity to test it immediately, as a pre-amp, into the fx return of my Orange Terror Bass with a 1-12 & 1-15 speaker cab.
Man. This pedal does a great job as pre-amp. The Boost option gives a great volume kick (too bad it's a flickswitch and no extra footswitch, but, nitpicking...), but without boost, it serves as a great clean-to-medium-dirty pre-amp.
Although they're in the same ballpark, this pedal differs from the EAE Model feT, since you can switch channels and put them in parallel. I also tried the model T as a dirtpedal into the Model feT, which is brilliant, sounds like a monstrous overdriven wall of tube amps.
But, pairing the Model T with a Rat (or any Rodent based pedal, like the Rattler Bass), Alpha Omicron, HM-2 or fuzz will get you big walls of sound.
I only tried it with my main bass (drop A tuning) and a Bass VI so far. But this little pedal is worth it's money and the wait.
This pedal is fucking awesome. Throw some dirt at it and with the simple tap of a toe, it will deliver a crushing, massive tone with a bark that will send the hounds of hell scattering and cowering in fear. Play loud and move some air!(Works great straight into a DAW with your favorite IR loaded, too.)
