Prehistoric Dog

Meet The Prehistoric Dog - a distortion/preamp pedal that resurrects the legendary tone of the classic Sunn Beta Lead/Bass solid state amplifiers of the 70's and 80's.

 Known for their raw power and distinct sound, these amps became a staple for heavy music and now that the iconic tone is reborn in a versatile pedal.

The Prehistoric Dog can serve as both a crushing distortion unit and a solid-state preamp capable of driving a power amplifier directly for a full rig setup. With its aggressive, punchy character and rich harmonic texture, this pedal is perfect for players seeking vintage-inspired, high-gain tones with the reliability and clarity of solid state circuitry.

Whether you're after biting distortion or need a preamp to push your amp to new levels, the Prehistoric Dog delivers ferocious tone that stands the test of time. Made in small batches in Austin, Texas.

Power requirements: 9V DC, min 150mA current

Made in Texas, USA

Berserker Electronics was born in 2020, when isolation sparked inspiration. As an electrical engineer stuck at home during the pandemic, I began building pedals with a simple mission: create gear that sounds great, is easy to use, and won’t break the bank. Each Berserker pedal is designed to be versatile enough for any rig but intuitive enough to dial in fast. No gimmicks, no fluff – just reliable, great-sounding tools that let you focus on playing. Whether you’re in the studio or on stage, Berserker’s got your tone covered.
