Son of Ben

PREAMP

Description

The Son of Ben is a specialized preamp pedal designed by PedalPCB that meticulously recreates the circuit of the Benson Amps Preamp. It utilizes a trio of J201 JFET transistors biased to operate like vacuum tubes, providing a highly responsive, amp-like feel. The circuit features a comprehensive two-band EQ and ranges from a clean boost to rich overdrive and gated fuzz. This specific iteration is often found as a high-quality DIY kit or a boutique build by small-scale builders using the PedalPCB platform. Its design focuses on capturing the nuanced harmonic saturation of the Chimera 30-watt amplifier in a compact pedal format.
