MERIDIAN, MS – Peavey Electronics® announces the Bandit® – Supreme Teal Stripe Preamp pedal. Based off the revered and long out of production Peavey Supreme 160 head, the new pedal delivers the legendary solid state lead channel tones in a compact, easy to use package.
The original Teal Stripe Bandit 112/S was released in 1989. The Supreme 160 was the head version. Since its release, the amp head has become a pawn shop gem. Often referred to as the “OG high gain solid state amp”, “the best solid state metal amp”, or simply “the workhorse”, the lead channel provided a novel patented active EQ circuit, known as Bottom, Body, and Edge, along with a patented update to the formidable early ‘80s Saturation circuit, known as SUPERSAT™, that was very responsive and extremely flexible – able to dial in anything between a solid crunch tone to the extreme, brutal tones of death metal all with the reliability of solid-state technology. The biggest drawback to the head was its weight. The Supreme 160 head weighed in at a whopping 60 lbs.! For a head!
Today, Peavey succeeds in achieving those famous tones within the confines of a preamp pedal able to fit on nearly any pedal board. Loaded with PRE and POST gain control supported by GAIN and MIDSHIFT switches, the “must have” SUPERSAT™, the three band active BOTTOM, BODY, and EDGE EQ, the pedal gives players easy access to those desirable tones at a click of a button, at an affordable price. Hardware features include ¼” input and output, internal bipolar supply from a standard 9v supply/battery, power input, and a hard bypass switch with anti-click circuitry.
