Jackson Audio - Prism Buffer, Boost, Preamp, EQ and Overdrive

The Ultimate Tonal Swiss Army Knife

The Prism isn't just another boost pedal - it's a buffer, preamp, active EQ, and boost all in one. With studio-grade flexibility, it gives you ±15dB of treble and bass control, letting you shape any guitar to fit perfectly into your rig.

Three Distinct Boost Personalities

Choose your sonic character: Transparent mode delivers pure JFET clarity with 18V headroom - your guitar, just louder. Amp mode uses MOSFETs to recreate that cranked tube amp sweetness, shaving highs and lows for classic rock perfection. Color mode brings the Brian May magic with silicon transistor saturation that completely transforms your sound. Cut the bass completely for authentic Brian May treble booster tones, or crank it up for vintage germanium fuzz textures. The Prism handles everything from pristine clean boost to saturated overdrive, making it the one boost pedal that adapts to any musical style.

Visual Feedback That Makes Sense

The LED changes colors as you boost - because a prism breaks white light into its components, just like this pedal breaks your signal into different tonal possibilities. It's not just pretty; it's functional visual feedback for your boost level.

Independent Pregain Control Per Mode. Each of the three boost circuits has its own low/medium/high pregain settings, dialed in specifically for that mode's character. Think of the boost knob as master volume and pregain as your available gain range - maximum flexibility without compromise.

Professional-Grade Switching

True bypass with relay switching means zero pops or clicks, even in elaborate pedalboard setups. The 10-second boot sequence lets all relays and gain levels settle perfectly, with programmable default states and LED brightness control for dark stages.

About Brad Jackson

Meet Brad Jackson - commercial pilot by day, tone perfectionist always. His journey from building world-class amplifiers to crafting precision guitar pedals is a story of innovation, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of sonic perfection. For a decade, Jackson Amp Works produced legendary amplifiers that graced stages worldwide, including John Mayer's Battle Studies World Tour. But when the music industry shifted toward digital modeling in 2018, Brad made a bold pivot: he closed the amp company and channeled that expertise into something new. Jackson Audio was born from this transition - not as a retreat, but as evolution. Every pedal carries the DNA of those amplifier years: the understanding of how tubes saturate, how circuits interact, and how musicians actually use their gear. Brad's approach combines the precision of aviation with the artistry of music, creating pedals that solve real problems for working musicians while pushing the boundaries of what's possible in a compact enclosure.
