Frequently Asked Questions
It's more than just a volume boost; the FET circuit and EQ switches add harmonic complexity and tonal shaping you won’t find in a basic boost.
They’re straightforward once you understand the frequency response changes they create, but a little research online can quickly clarify their functions.
Yes, 18V provides a slightly more aggressive and saturated tone, but 9V is perfectly usable and maintains the core EP-3 preamp character.
