Description
"The BOOst" - Germanium Boost The BOOst is my take on the classic germanium treble booster, but with some "bootique" improvements for reduced noise, added tonal choices, and puns. Modernizing a Classic The Rangemaster circuit was beloved by many of top guitarists in the time of its release (Jimmy Page, Tony Iommi, Brian May,..) and is still highly sought-after today. However, it had it's limitations and some of the circuitry (while great) could be improved. One of the major complaints about using vintage effects with germanium transistors was that they couldn't be used with normal, modern center negative power supplies. the BOOst features an onboard charge pump circuit to take the 9V power from your power supply, convert it, and give the pedal what it needs
Another comment about the original treble booster was, while it worked miracles with the darker British amps (such as the Vox AC30 and Marshall Bluesbreaker) , the frequency was just too high for brighter amps like American fenders. To give the BOOst more flexibility, a 3 position toggle allows you to choose between 3 modes;
Treble: Great for adding top end to darker, while cutting bass. Excels at tightening high gain amp tones Mid: A classic mid focused boost. The perfect volume and frequency boost to cut through a live mix, or just enhance an anemic tone Full-Range: Why just boost one frequency when you can boost them all? If you want a tone thicker than graveyard fog, welcome home
The BOOst uses a vintage Germanium transistor in conjunction with modern components (Metal film resistors, Polyester film capacitors, Aluminum electrolytic capacitors) to provide the the classic sounds of a treble booster, but with a much lower noise floor and expanded tonal choices via 3-position voice toggle. The pedal also sports custom art (puns free of charge), and a spooky Ghost circuitboard.
