Add 20dB of boost to your signal at the flip of a switch with this PA2 Preamp Boost toggle switch from EMG, perfect for driving the input of your amp.

The PA2 is a straight booster preamplifier mounted on a minitoggle switch. Perfect if you want to just plain overdrive the input of your amp for distortion. It has a trim pot so you can preset the amount of boost up to an additional 20 dB. The PA2 will also work with passive pickups.

This is my second pa2 I love having the extra kick at a flip of a switch. I use it for solo boosts as well as going between hard rock and metal songs. Ive decided I got to have this on every guitar in my collection. The install is not to hard, I can install and have in and set up in about 10 minutes. Unless you are replacing another mini switch or familiar with drilling guitar tops you will need to have it installed by a tech. Its worth it imo that boost is very useful.
