Sunnaudio Introduces Nucleus NU-1 Dual Boost Distortion Pedal
Sunnaudio has introduced the Nucleus NU-1 Dual Boost Distortion, an analog preamp designed for both bass and guitar. The pedal features a dual boost with high to low gain to go from a clean signal to full distortion.
It has independent high and low gain channels that can be toggled with a footswitch. The Hi gain channel offers up to 60dB of gain and goes from clean to “full saturated grind” while the Lo channel goes from clean to a “nice overdriven breakup.” Each channel shares a Gain knob while having its own LED knob to indicate which channel is selected. They share a tone control, as well, for boosting or cutting mids. Finally, a “focus” knob adjusts sub-harmonic frequencies to add to your bass signal.
The Sunnaudio NU-1 Dual Boost Distortion runs on a 7.5v – 12v external DC adapter or 9v battery. It carries an MSRP of $285.
