Peace Hill FX ODS Tube Preamp Kimono #1

Authentic Japanese two-channel tube tone inspired by legendary boutique D-style amplifiers.

The ODS Tube Preamp captures the sound and feel that defined countless iconic guitar performances. Inspired by classic boutique “D” amplifiers, it combines a rich, Fender-influenced clean channel with a harmonically complex overdrive channel, both generated entirely by real vacuum tubes.

Handcrafted in Minoh City, Osaka, each unit is built using high-end and vintage components, carefully selected and assembled by hand. No two pedals are exactly alike—each ODS Tube Preamp is created as a true one-of-a-kind instrument, reflecting Peace Hill FX’s commitment to tone, craftsmanship, and musicality.
