« A beautiful clean boost »
Published on 08/06/10 at 08:33Clean boost pedal handmade with the model name written by hand and the serial number. Wonderful pedal with glitter (if they leave it)
2 knobs (gain and level) on new versions instead of 1 before.
9 V power supply
UTILIZATION
Very simple no manual and no need elsewhere; it sounds now
SOUND QUALITY
The pedal fits nearly every style so you can adjust it according to these needs. I use it to replace my mic amp and frankly for such a small difference in price I had to make the mos uno on.
I use 3 different ways with the same setting (gain level to 11H and 12H):
Clean-in: boosts the output level by adding the gain without losing serious as was the mic amp; here it continues to sound great for longer.
Crunch-in: it gives a big distortion without making a lead so it is very exploitable, since it sounds rhythmic fat enough anyway.
Disto-typed in metal: one obtains a perfect lead sound without having the same weaknesses that the micro amp which was too light for that.
OVERALL OPINION
I'm using it for a few days and I was able to try several guitars and amps (transistors, lamps).
He seems clearly designed for lamps especially if you want a nice clean with but otherwise it can really deliver whatever distortion.
I would do this choice, but I would still like to try the Xotic RC booster, but it is not in the same price range (factor of two)
