Perfect booster
If you want a badass full frequency booster then this is the ticket
Hard to write review for just a boost but...
GREAT little pedal built like a tank, quiet. Pulled it right out of the box and placed it on my pedalboard, left the internal settings alone - dialed in tone and volume - sweet pure gain with a nice thick component to it... Hard to get excited about just a boost pedal - but I am re-discovering some GREAT gain staging options for old pedals, needed a clean boost - this works perfectly.… read more Love MXR - great service, love Sweetwater - great gear and advice, and I thank my long time sales engineer Chris McCown making this recommendation - I was going in a different direction - he suggested the MXR, really GREAT advice, it has the "thickness" of the EP Boost, with more flexibility (tone!), and clean and silent!).
Great boost!
I needed something to cut through the mix during leads. This is exactly what I was looking for! Very little effect on my original tone, although it can be adjusted, enough volume increase to bring forth all of the individual notes without causing feedback.
Stellar Lead Boost!
I run this little beast in the effects loop as a Lead Boost, just like I would normally run a a Micro Amp, but there’s a tonal difference. This pedal seems to produce more low end which works great for thickening single-note licks and solos. That, mixed with the growl of the EP Preamp, plus the ability to adjust the amount of growl and boost level makes this 2 in 1 boost worth… read more every penny!
Super-Versatile Boost Pedal!
This little pedal is just awesome! I prefer it as a lead boost for single note stuff. It can also create some some really ragged, trashy, sludgy distortion blended with an overdriven amp. IMO, it"s not so great for palm-muted heavy stuff. But it does many other things great. You can turn off the EP pot, then you have a Micro Amp, or you can crank the EP pot, figure out the boost… read more range, and you have something similar to the EP Preamp. Or, dial in any Micro Amp/EP blend combo you like for a bunch of different sounds! Very cool, great-sounding fun little pedal!
