INTRODUCTION

The Eggnog is a single-channel tube overdrive and preamp pedal
going back to the small, yellow-patterned combination amplifiers made
in Fullerton in the 1950s. Based around a 12AX7 tube running at high
voltage (250VDC – but from a 12VDC supply) to accurately capture the
feel and breakup characteristics of a low-powered Tweed, the
overtly-American preamp circuitry can transform any clean amplifier
into a raspy box of vintage Fendery goodness.
If you're a fan of the Southern blues-rock of ZZ Top; the boxy, honky
breakup of Joe Walsh in his prime; Keef's raunchy rock & roll; the
screaming lead tones of Mr Bonamassa; or (at the extremes) the
"excitable" low-end of Neil Young...the Eggnog will deliver those syrupy,
original American tones in spades.
