Trickfish's iconic Internal Pre Amp (IPA) in a box.
Perfect for passive or active instruments, their External Pre Amp (EPA) is designed to seamlessly dovetail with your existing sound, while offering the exceptionally voiced 3 band EQ that their IPA preamp users have come to find indispensable.
Get the Trickfish onboard preamp sound without modifying your passive bass or add a studio quality preamp/EQ stage to your pedalboard before or after your FX chain for added tonal control. Like the IPA, users can choose from two frequency points per band. This is done via dip switches on the back of the circuit board. Shelving bass boost/cut can be configured at 40Hz or 80Hz, mid boost/cut at 330Hz, 375Hz, 430Hz, or 500Hz and shelving treble boost/cut at 4kHz or 8kHz.
