Everyone should have at least one boost. Here’s why…
Welcome to the show! We’ve done a number of shows on boosts in the past, but here’s an update using some recent additions to the market that have a range of super useful features and sounds.
Why choose a boost? Well, at its simplest, a booster will give you ‘more’, but perhaps a better question is, ‘What do I want to boost, and why?’. These eight pedals offer different answers to that, whether you want to achieve more tonal range from the guitar, send your overdrive pedals into the next level or indeed push your amp into more overdrive.
We hope you enjoy the sounds and feel inspired to try some of these applications for a boost pedal.
JAM RATTLER CORRECTION. Mick here - apols, I said the 'up' position on the switch boosts treble, but it actually attenuates high end a little bit. Sorry all!
Enjoy the show…
