The best way to get as close as possible to the origi-
nal Pultec sound in hardware is to get the PE 1C
from Tube-Tech. As mentioned on Tube-Tech’s web
page, the sound of a PE 1C is exactly like the sound
of a brand-new Pultec—not a dusty, old, and un-
serviced Pultec. The difference is that a meticulously
serviced Pultec has a wide and open frequency
response, without graininess or harshness. The PE
1C is not a dull and muddy old school equalizer, it’s
in fact pretty much the opposite!
Anyway, Tube-Tech makes great gear. Period. Every
time we get to borrow Tube-Tech stuff we immedi-
ately fall in love and want to keep it.
