The de Lisle Eighty-Sixed is a tube preamp born of our unique amplifier designs. The tube line up includes an EF86 pentode fronted by a 12AX7 twin-triode. This arrangement allows the true character of the pentode to be heard, since it can be driven by a larger signal than those produced by guitar pickups. And by cranking up the Gain knob, the Eighty-Sixed makes a fantastic tube overdrive pedal. No opamps, transistors or clipping diodes–what you get is 100% high voltage pentode overdrive.
The tone control circuit is simple and effective allowing the player to dial in a wide range of tones. Turning the knob counter-clockwise cuts treble while turning the knob clockwise cuts bass. At 50% rotation the response is flat–a good choice when using an amp’s existing EQ.
The two outputs allow the Eighty-Sixed to play nicely with a number of devices. The “Hi Output” provides a large signal output that is ideally suited for connecting to the “power amp in” or serial “loop return” of certain amplifiers. The “Lo Output” is perfect for hooking into a pedal chain, console or the input of another tube or solid state amplifier. This output can also be used to connect to high quality loop returns (like ours) that have an active mixing stage, which is great for live performance. Using an A/B Y box, the player can switch between the Eighty-Sixed preamp and the amp’s existing preamp or mixture of both.
Just like our amps, the de Lisle Eighty-Sixed Preamp is hand-wired and built to last. The aluminum chassis features a durable power coat finish. Each pedal comes with our standard lifetime warranty. Eighty-six your preamp and get a de Lisle Eighty-Sixed.

de Lisle Mosfet Overdrive Pedal
$159.00Hear it on tour with Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters!
The de Lisle MOSFET OD is a dirt pedal built by a tube amplifier company...and it sounds like it. From thick complex chords to shimmering lead tones, the sweet tube-like overdrive is sure to become a favorite on your board.
Plug in and turn up the Drive control to add some texture to your sound with light overdrive, or crank the Drive knob for full-on face melting rock & roll. The de Lisle MOSFET OD performs well at either extreme. Back off the guitar's volume to clean it up, and then dig in with your pick to push it back over the edge. The result is a natural, dynamic and open sounding overdrive.
Use the combination high/low pass filter Tone control to shape the pedal's frequency response and rich harmonics. The response is flat at 50% rotation, which allows your signal to remain transparent.
The Level pot controls the pedal's output. There's plenty signal available to drive the front end of an amp. Or turn up the Level with the Drive rolled back to boost your the signal.
The de Lisle MOSFET OD is hand-wired, made in the USA and features a lifetime warranty. And the blue LED is guaranteed to keep opening acts from stealing your mojo.Maximum quantity exceededMinimum purchase amount of 0 is required -
de Lisle Pet Dragon Fuzz Pedal
$149.00The Pet Dragon Fuzz features a combination of BC108 and BC109 transistors. The tones are fat and compressed and perfect for singing leads.

Just a great version of this classic effect.
It runs on 9V battery or adapter. The DC jack has a negative tip, so it plays nicely with other pedals/power supplies.Maximum quantity exceededMinimum purchase amount of 0 is required
