DanDrive GOAT – The EP3 reimagined.
The GOAT is DanDrive's tribute to the legendary Echoplex EP3—a secret weapon used by countless studio legends.
Known for its ability to subtly shape and enhance guitar tone, the Echoplex's preamp became a staple for players looking to add warmth, clarity, and just the right amount of boost.
DanDrive's take on this iconic circuit captures everything that made the original great, with a few smart updates for modern rigs.
The GOAT retains the signature bass cut and midrange push of the EP-3, while adding a gentle treble lift in the upper frequencies—bringing out presence and articulation without harshness. The result is a tone sweetener that works beautifully with any rig.
With up to +10dB of clean boost and a simple Level control, the GOAT makes it easy to enhance your tone without overcomplicating your setup.
Whether you're using it to push your amp, fatten up single-coils, or just add that elusive magic to your signal, the GOAT delivers pure preamp mojo in a pedalboard-friendly format!
As with all DanDrive pedals, the GOAT is hand-built using top-shelf components, housed in a compact enclosure with top-mounted jacks and a classic jewel amp light. It also runs internally at 18V for added headroom and clarity.
Whether you're chasing vintage warmth, modern sparkle, or that indescribable "something," the GOAT earns its title—Greatest Of All Time!
