ART TPS II 2-Channel Tube Pre-amp with V3 Presets

Description

The ART TPS II is a two-channel, rack-mountable Tube Preamplifier System designed to add warmth, clarity, and analogue texture to microphones and instruments.

My TPSII is currently housed in a Samson transportable 19” rack, and I have been using it as a stereo guitar power amp in conjunction with my Lexicon MX300 multi-reverb unit and my Thomann t-amp S75. This combination has never been gigged and it is in very good condition, having only had home-use.
