Seymour Duncan Palladium Gain Stage - Hi

For sale is the Seymour Duncan Palladium Gain Stage in excellent condition. This is one of the most sophisticated high-gain preamps ever built in pedal form. This particular model is now out of production and is sold out in international stores, making it a rare tool. Technical Analysis & Capabilities:Gain Stage Architecture:Unlike common distortion pedals, the Palladium uses a multi-stage (discrete circuitry) that emulates the response of a bulb amplifier. It offers three levels of control: gain (saturation), resonance (low-end cabinet thump) and a built-in Boost stage that is placed before the main circuitry for maximum sustain in solos. Parametric EQ & parametric EQ. Mid-Shift: Features full EQ with sweepable midrange control. Allows selection of the center frequency (255Hz to 1.1kHz), giving the ability to shift the character from British mid-forward to American scooped metal sounds with absolute precision. Presence & Presence. Tone Shaping: the Presence slider controls the high frequencies in the final output stage, allowing the sound to 'cut' through the mix, while Resonance adjusts how the low frequency reacts, simulating the volume of a 4x12 cab.

True Bypass Switching: features True Bypass circuitry, ensuring that when the pedal is switched off, the signal remains perfectly clean and unmodulated (no tone suck), maintaining the integrity of your chain. Dynamic Response: the pedal exhibits excellent touch sensitivity to the guitar's touch and volume knob. It cleans organically like an amp, while maintaining string separation even at extreme gain settings. Voltage Headroom: Operates from 9V to 18V. At 18V, the internal circuitry offers increased dynamic range and noticeably less compression, approaching the feel of a real-size preamp. Selling Facts: The pedal is fully functional, quiet and built to studio specifications. All technical inspection is accepted.
