The Locomotive by Crazy Tube Circuits is a real tube bass overdrive pedal featuring a 12AY7 tube, the same type used in the preamp of a tweed bass amp design from decades ago. The pedal is designed with a wide gain range, allowing for a massive clean boost to warm organic tube grind, with excellent touch sensitivity and dynamic response. It features a clean control to blend in the dry signal and preserve all bass frequencies, and a low impedance output that enables the pedal to be used as a stand-alone preamp. The Locomotive is powered by a standard 9V DC supply with an internal voltage multiplier to deliver proper tube voltages.
