VHT GP3 preamp opinion?

[ultimatemetalguitartones]

Tsup everyone? I have the opportunity to buy this preamp but unfortunately the seller lives far away. Now I know that this preamp is supposed to be the pitbull/ ultra lead preamp but I would like to hear ur opinion! Does it chug?!

If you mean does it do cookie munster,death metal ,nu metal,old metal,any metal,,kill all unborn rodents within 20 miles of earshot? Uh,ya..ch 3 will get u there.
Mine does and that's with a tele and unmodded gp3..u can get ch 3 modded for even more gain if you prefer..I have a master built clx and the gp3 is pretty much the preamp of the pittbulls,but with way more flexibility and channel customization. I'd highly recommend using the mighty 2150,or 2100 classic,or 2-90-2 if you really want to get the full experience.

I've A/B'd my unmodded GP3 with an Ultra Lead and it's very similar. Some says the GP3 has less gain than Pittbulls but I think that's due to they've spread the available gain range through the gain and boost controls (instead of just having 1 gain control like Pittbulls). Just engage the onboard boost if you feel like there isn't quite enough gain.
