Somehow I have an extra. They don’t offer these anymore so grab it up - a piece of NC swag!
It is a volume boost pedal with onboard dual analog JFET transistors. The further the heat control is increased, the more volume boost is acquired - however, simultaneously the more the pedals own JFET transistors add their own analog overdrive.
On solid state amps, this works very similarly to how tube amps warm up and naturally overdrive as they are cranked - giving them a rich analog warmth. Used with tube amps, this pedal will push the pre-amp section and help warm the tubes into a rich natural overdrive, while at the same time gradually stacking its own onboard JFET drive, to create a luxuriously thick, rich and warm drive that sounds HOT!
This dynamic, natural boost and drive pedal is hand soldered, hand wired, and hand finished. It uses high quality components, with true bypass when in the 'off' position.
High Quality Components, including:
Genuine dual 2n5457 JFET's
Audio Grade, LESR Panasonic Capacitors throughout
Metal Film resistors throughout
Neutric jack sockets
Genuine Hammond enclosures, hand sanded, buffed, drilled, painted and finished with several coats of cured clear coat lacquer
Alpha potentiometers
Authentic 'Taiwan Blue' 3PDT footswitches
Point-to-Point hand soldered throughout, including all components and offboard wiring
True bypass, with standard 9volt power operation
No trades or lowballers.
