You can buys 220/230 Volt versions from your local dealeler. Please contact them. The preamp is currently been updated so you may have to wait up to 6months. You can modify from 110V but I wouldnt.
Connoisseur of good tone.

Your Guitar Preamp should say on the bottom what voltage it is supposed to be powered from.

If it is in fact 120v, the easiest route would be to use a step down transformer to convert the 220V down to 120V.
A local amp tech will likely be able to re-configure the power input to the correct voltage since the original Guitar Preamp had a multi primary power transformer... if that makes no sense, just stick with the external step down transformer method. Do not attempt this mod unless you absolutely know what you are doing! Lethal Voltages = What you don't know WILL harm you!
