PRODUCTS INFORMATION

The MK-5 Handmade PTP All-Tube Floor Preamps/Pedals by Elan are compact and innovative preamp pedals that deliver authentic tube amp sound in a portable package. With high voltage all-tube circuitry, adjustable tone characteristics, and a lightweight design, these preamps are ideal for ampless stages, studio recording, and traveling musicians. Despite their small size, they deliver a full and natural tube sound that rivals traditional tube amplifiers, making them a versatile tool for musicians seeking premium tone on the go.
 
One of the standout features of the MK-5 preamps is their ability to replicate the feel and sound of a real tube amp, thanks to their all-tube circuitry. Unlike starved plate designs, the MK-5 preamps boast a high voltage of over 350VDC on the 12AX7 tube plate, ensuring that they perform identically to full-size tube amplifiers. This results in a full, rich, and tight tube sound that captures the classic UK and US tube amplifier modifications done by Elan for renowned musicians over the past 30 years.
