EarthQuaker Devices ZEQD-Pre is a fully analog tube preamp that combines the iconic tone of Dr. Z Amplification with the innovative pedal design of EarthQuaker Devices. Powered by an EF86 tube, it delivers authentic tube warmth, exceptional dynamics, and hi-fi clarity in a compact, pedalboard-friendly format.

Designed to sit at the end of your signal chain, the ZEQD-Pre enhances any setup with classic tube character. Its passive three-band EQ offers musical and precise tone shaping, while the Boost footswitch completely bypasses the EQ for a powerful full-range boost with its own dedicated volume control.

Featuring a built-in analog cabinet simulation, a professional headphone output, and a balanced XLR output, the ZEQD-Pre is perfectly suited for silent practice, direct recording, and backline-free performances. The cabinet simulation can be easily bypassed for use with external IR loaders or modeling software.

With no menus, no digital converters, and no firmware updates, the ZEQD-Pre delivers a pure analog solution for players seeking true tube dynamics. While designed with guitarists in mind, its wide tonal range and tube warmth also make it ideal for bass, synthesizers, keyboards, drums, and even vocals.

The pedaal is True Bypass and is powered by a standard 9 volts power supply (not included).
