 AIRSTRIP   CB-Range Discrete Console Pre 

In the 60's many studios popped up in the UK and the go to board was a Trident A-Range console. It had the UREI OpAmps along with germanium transistor's and transformer with a bit of sag. Pushed past its limit for vocals etc it coud be made to clip and make a near Fuzz like sound. Zappa loved it so much he bought a board for his Studio.  

Catalinbread jumped onto the current fad with their Board-in-a-Box. 

The layout is Push, a pre OpAmp boost, Trim which pushes it harder, Filter cuts or boosts the highs and Volume.

      CONCLUSION __ 

I find these kind of pedals dead cool when you get them 

but it is like getting a whole set of spices in fancy jars for 

Xmas. A little goes a long way. These days there are more 

guys with a bookcase than a board for their pedals so this  

could sell very well. I have a friend who in the summer

would buy this to kill time on a weekend morning waiting 

his buddies to pick him up for golf.
