RhodesMan Custom Pre-Amp

The cure for a muddy rhodes.

Photo of the RhodesMan Custom Pre-AmpGot muddy tone? Wish you had more control over your sound? The RhodesMan Pre-Amp was developed to meet the needs of professional keyboardists looking for the ultimate versatility in tone.

The RhodesMan Pre is nearly identical to the Stewart active pre-amp that was offered as an accessory for the original stage Rhodes piano.

In addition to gain, mud cut, and active treble and bass controls, it has a handy "click-off" feature that helps prolong battery life, as well as improved bass response.

The RhodesMan Pre-Amp cleans up the mud and reveals a warm, natural-sounding tone with crisp highs and defined low end. Plus, you can go from a chimey, bell-like ballad sound to a ballsy fusion bark—on the fly!
