The Ghost Note Audio - Vader 140 - Preamp Pedal (Black) captures the aggressive, focused tone of the legendary late-80s VH-140c circuit, delivering a thick, saturated sound with a unique midrange character.

This pedal features an active 3-band EQ alongside a Presence control to counteract the original amp's muffled high-frequency roll-off, plus a Shift control to alter the Mid band's center frequency.

Built for versatility across genres, the Vader 140 includes an internal voltage-boost mechanism that runs the circuit at the same voltage as the original amplifier for authentic performance.

Housed in a rugged 16-gauge steel enclosure with a textured powder coat finish, it features soft-touch footswitches and relay-based true bypass switching to keep your signal clean.

  • Based on the legendary late-80s VH-140c circuit with its patented, aggressive gain stage design.
  • Active 3-band equalizer (Bass, Mid, Treble) for precise tonal shaping.
  • Presence control compensates for the original circuit's high-frequency roll-off.
  • Shift switch alters the Mid band center frequency for a more traditional tone.
  • Internal voltage-boost mechanism runs the circuit at the original amplifier's voltage.
  • True bypass with relay switching and a soft-touch footswitch.
  • Rugged 16-gauge (1.6mm) steel enclosure with a textured powder coat finish.
