General

The Tsakalis AudioWorks Mothership Tube Overdrive Preamp seamlessly blends authentic analogue warmth with an ultra-configurable cabinet simulator, basically setting a new standard when it comes to building your guitar rig. Loaded up with two independent channels, each equipped with extensive four-band EQ controls, Gain and Volume sections and three selectable gain stages, this preamp pedal is capable of weaving some fierce sonic magic. Dial in everything you could possible need, from sparkling and lush cleans to tight yet brutal high-gain distortions. Apply one of three user-defined cabinet simulations to each channel and quickly and easily call up and customise different lead and rhythm sounds by hitting the footswitch or toggle everything via MIDI commands.

Authentic Valve-Driven Sound with a Transparent Buffer

The sheer beauty of the Mothership starts with the two ECC83 (12AX7) valves that lie at its heart, each boasting 240 Volt internal operation. The result is a more-than-convincing dynamic response, more-than-enough headroom and some of that much-sought-after, classic valve-style sag. As soon as you activate the Mothership, your guitar signal is sent straight through the valves, giving you analogue sound without having to heft around a weighty tube amplifier. On top of that, Tsakalis has included a pack of seventy custom cabinet sims, all accessed via the Tsakalis TAW Editor app, which you can link to the pedal via USB. The housing has also been kitted out with dedicated cab sim outputs as well as a dry output, plus a serial mono FX loop for seamless integration with the rest of your pedalboard.

The Ultimate in Flexibility for the Modern Guitarist

The Mothership has been born to serve as the ultimate amp-in-a-box; as a valve-based overdrive pedal that can be placed before your amplifier to give it some extra kick; as a tone-defining preamp section planted directly in your power amp; or all of the above - all at the same time! The extensive set of functions, the solid design and build and the unrivalled level of flexibility on offer here make the Mothership an undeniable tone enhancer, coating your sound in the genuine warmth of a set of real valves and backing everything up with a fat stack of progressive options.
