MGR/Billy « Seymour Duncan SFX-01 Pickup Booster »
Published on 02/22/11 at 15:00This is the small red box pedal but out by Seymour Duncan. What does it do? It boosts your signal anywhere from 6 db up to 25 db of clean, flat signal.
I bought it as sort of an impulse buy to try out in the studio. I paid $80 with free shipping from Sweetwater's website.
It is a no nonsense pedal. No extra EQ or drive buttons. So I really enjoy the simplicity.
None at all. If you crank it up you will get some added noise, but hey what can you expect, if there is noise in your signal this pedal will amplify it.
The resonance control does not really do a whole lot for me. It is supposed to make a single coil pickup sound more like a humbucker. I do not hear much of a difference, maybe that is just my ears.
Well built. Knob is solid and this pedal can take a few good stomps.
A great option to consider if you do not feel like taking your guitar apart and putting new pickups in. Maybe you play a vintage guitar and are looking for just a little more juice to send to your amp.
