A boost with an isolated second output that has a phase flip & ground lift?! YES.

The AMPSAMPS Little Gray Man combines the format of the Console Boost and the functionality of the Gray Man tube preamp. It’s a massive boost based on the negative feedback-style controls found in classic 1960s recording console inputs that was designed to provide a transparent boost with up to 60x unity gain… known for adding high-end clarity and sustain to a guitar signal. The design also includes a high input impedance which helps preserve the original tone of the guitar and pickups. When driven hard, the boost produces a smooth, natural distortion, reminiscent of tube triode overload. Note: crackle when increasing or decreasing the volume is due to the control re-biasing the BS170 transistor.

The two outputs are isolated with a 1:1 transformer that allows you to flip the phase of your signal between the two outputs & lift the ground on the second output to avoid any ground loops or unwanted hum when running two amps!
