Broughton SV-Pre

Just managed to get one of these direct from Josh, sold out in 15 minutes! Looking forward to getting it.

 

Anyone on here have one and love it?

He seems to do alright for himself- any pedal released sells out almost instantly, I am keen to try one at some point as he must be doing somethign right! I suppose its good that he doesn't do the usual thing of either put up his prices or scale-up production, doesn't make getting the pedals easy though.

He released a preamp last week called the “Archetype” and it sold out in seconds! Think he only made about 15 though so not surprising 😬

I've used one for a while now and really like it.  I had another as a spare too but sold it on here when I realised I didn't need it! 

The controls work just like an Ampeg preamp and is particularly strong in the mids. I don't use the switches but they work fine also. Broughton pedals always seem to be a well built quality product , it would be interesting to find out how many he makes at a time as they always sell out quickly.

Broughton pedals and mains pre's never disappoint. Had 20+ of them during the last 4 years, including the P-15, SSDI and incoming Archetype. Pretty psyched about this one, think it will help drastically simplifying my pedal-board's 'dirt tone' part. Can't wait !

 

SV-Pre is a great take on SVT's tone. It got heft, massive lows, and although reproducing the weird scooped and bumped nature of SVTs mids, it doesn't disappear in a band setting. Think you'll dig it, congrats !

Great thanks, you got lucky with the Archetype! At least over here the time difference makes the release time at a reasonable hour, I think a lot of the Talkbass members have to wait up until 3am 😬

Absolutely, releases are most often pretty late / early for those living in West Coast, batches being sold out from one minute or so to 10-15 min. Archetypes went pretty fast, like the Sunray a few years ago. Tried to snag one, pulled the trigger during the 10 first second they were available, made a typo on my PP password, 2nd attempt was ok, as payment authorization, they were sold out in the meantime.
