"Right, right! It’s a ’54 Tele that I think went back for a [factory] refinish in ’57. I got it from Paul McKenzie, from Fiesta Finishes in Berkeley, California, and he had just refinished it. As a guitarist you know that those are kind of untouchable, usually, as far buying them, or finding them at a reasonable price, but because it had two refinishes it wasn’t exactly “stock.” The pickups and everything else is original, it’s just been painted a couple times." - Fretboard Journal.

“I am in LOVE with this pedal ! I used it every night of my last tour. This pedal is so musical and brings a character out of the amp that is so reminiscent of what my favorite old tweed amps have, plus the clarity and definition of a modern sound. What really blows my mind is how the TubeDreamer+ catches every nuance, every dynamic modulation or tonal shift, its like the ultimate sidekick !”

We are honored that guitarist extraordinaire Julian Lage, has been using our B1G 1 Preamp Gain Booster on tour. He was kind enough to take a minute out of his day to send a message about his experience with the B1G 1. Here's what he had to say: "The B1G 1 pedal has quickly become a staple of my live set up. This is one of the most insantly useful pedals I’ve ever encountered - it essentially adds warmth and top end to the sound, all in a unified way, revealing what is coming from the guitar without ever feeling overly hyped. I am so fond of this pedal because it highlights and brings forth so much of what I love about the electric guitar, namely overtones and a wide dynamic range. Regardless of what amp I use the B1G 1 with, it seems to function almost like the mastering stage of an album - it is subtle and instantly musical, and when its not there, you sure miss it!" Thanks Julian!!

Hello, I heard CHARLES LLOYD "Kindred Spirits" held at Blue Note Tokyo on September 4, 2019. I took a picture of Julian Lage's equipment and reported it on my website. So, I noticed XTS Boss GE-7 EQ Mod that was not shared so far, so I added it here.
