A Hard-hitting Upgrade to Aguilar’s Revered Preamp Pedal

Aguilar’s Tone Hammer Preamp V2 builds upon the uncompromising studio-grade sound and versatile tone-shaping power of its predecessor, packing the punch of a Tone Hammer amplifier into stompbox form. This preamp pedal sports an elevated 3-band EQ that grants superior midrange control with its dedicated Mid Frequency and Mid Level knobs. Bassists after a heavier sound will be enthralled by the Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp V2’s proprietary Drive circuit — a feature that injects your signal with a healthy dose of tube-style saturation. And while this preamp pedal’s XLR out, ground-lift switch, and Pre/Post switch make it a natural choice for stage performances, Sweetwater bassists appreciate how Aguilar outfitted this V2 iteration with a practice-friendly headphone output and dedicated headphone mix control. A worthy successor to the V1, the Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp V2 is a veritable rig in a box that’s equally at home rocking the stage, recording direct in the studio, or woodshedding your next showpiece.

Aguilar: the brand chosen by touring bassists worldwide

Aguilar pickups, preamps, amplifiers, effects, and cabinets are created by bass players for bass players. Whether you play live or lay it down in the studio, Aguilar Amplification products are designed to deliver the best bass performance possible. World-famous bassists like John Patitucci (Chick Corea), Adam Clayton (U2), and Paul Turner (Jamiroquai) have discovered the tone, power, and reliability of Aguilar products.

Aguilar Tone Hammer Preamp V2 Features:

  • Successor to Aguilar’s revered Tone Hammer V1 preamp pedal DI, packing the sound of a Tone Hammer amp into a stompbox
  • 3-band EQ to carve out your tone, with sweepable midrange controls
  • Aguilar Drive circuit injects your signal with a dose of tubelike saturation with the stomp of a footswitch
  • Studio-grade DI makes for superb direct tones; XLR out with Pre/Post and ground-lift switches
  • Headphone jack with dedicated headphone mix control for silent practice sessions

Reviews

Great Preamp!
Really warm and rich sound, plenty of headroom,and I'm really diggin' the aux and headphone jacks for quick on the road or at home practice. I like the drive, but would love a bit more grit from it. Not complaining though, it makes up with everything else. You can definitely cut through the mix with the mid controls!
