Thermion Gasoline Distortion Preamp

From the Zero Hybrid Amp to the Black Sun and Stone Age effects, we love the gear coming from the Thermion camp. Each piece is so unique and well thought out, not to mention adding a myriad of tonal choices to any rig. Today, we’re taking a look at their Gasoline Distortion Preamp, which combines classic rock, crunchy amps and a bit of heavy metal into a savory auditory stew…

Gasoline is the tool that will make you set aside all your old distortion effects and preamps. Genuine American High Gain boutique sound with unprecedented versatility and tons of gain, made to reach every style from rock to the most extreme metal. The three band EQ, consisting of Bass, Mid and Treble, lets you sculpt and shape your sound to taste, while Vol controls the output level. Gain sets the amount of saturation present, Deep controls the deep low end frequencies (like Resonance on a tube amp) and Pres controls the highest treble frequencies, like the Presence control on a tube amp.

The VRM switch provide three different tonal characters as well: R (Raw) gives you a trebly and sharp tone; M (Modern) gets more aggressive, but with moderate treble frequencies. Finally, V (Vintage) gives you more classic overdrive and distortion sounds. The Gasoline is also equipped with SE2 (Studio Environment Emulation) technology with dedicated impulse responses for direct, professional recording.

Satisfying the most exquisite ears, Gasoline is built by hand one by one using the highest quality components and adjusting each gain stage, so that the sound is perfect in every unit. Each pedal features anodized metal printing for maximum durability, and are wired, soldered and built by hand according to Thermion’s quality standards. You want hear this puppy in action, right?
