Upgraded EP Booster
Diatonico 11.10.2021
Pro:
- 20dB of gain is enough for everything from a subtle solo boost to pushing your tubes into full-on overdrive
- 4 external trim pots: high cut, hi mid boost, low mid boost, bass boost
- true or buffered bypass (internal control)
- add headroom by supplying up to 18V
- sturdy, solid construction
- miniature format lets you squeeze it onto a tight pedalboard

Con:
- tiny gain control
- most of its dB range is found before the 9 o'clock position (roughly equal to the 16 dB of the super clean)

If you're looking for a booster, look no further. If you want enough gain to go into overdrive, pick the super sweet. If you prefer a less sensitive gain pot, go for the super clean.

Always on, a fat and rounded sound
Robslowhand 24.05.2020
It's a wonderful pedal: it's been always on since I put it on my pedalboard. It works best with single coils, fattening the sound and bringing it closer to crisp without distorting. The possibility of modifying the equalisation with the lateral switches (no need to open it) is an outstanding feature.

Great but..
peter barnes 29.07.2020
It's not for everyone I guess. Gotta try it for yourself but for me it wasn't making much difference in tone on lower gain settings to justify the spendings.
On higher gain settings it was just too loud (rehearsal space).
And it didn't really work that great with my Suhr Eclipse when gain cranked above 12 o'clock.

Not something I was looking for but surely a great product!
100% Recommend trying.

Klasse als Always-On-Pedal - sonst mit Einschränkungen
E. S. 17.10.2019
Ein wirklich tolles kleines Booster-Pedal (ebenso auch der Xotic Super Clean Buffer) und es fällt mir echt schwer, es zurückzuschicken und NICHT zu behalten! Man kann damit seinen Sound um eine ganze Nummer aufpeppen und es ist sehr benutzerfreundlich, da die vier kleinen Dip-Schalter (High Cut, Hi Mid Boost, Lo Mid Boost und Bass Boost) außen angebracht und damit sofort zugänglich und verstellbar sind!
Warum ich es trotzdem nicht behalte? Weil es für mich ausschließlich als "Always-On-Pedal" zu verwenden wäre. Denn wenn ich in den Genuß der möglichen Soundverbesserungen kommen will, muss ich den Gainregler des Pedals mindestens zu einem Viertel aufdrehen und habe damit immer einen ordentlichen Lautstärkeschub im Vergleich zum ausgeschalteten Pedal. Also immer einen Booster an, ob ich gerade will oder nicht. Denn außer dem Gainregler ist kein weiterer Volumen- oder Blendregler zum Lautstärkeausgleich vorhanden.
Wem das aber nichts ausmacht, das Pedal also immer eingeschaltet lassen möchte oder damit einen klasse Sound fürs Solospiel erzeugen will: Unbedingt ausprobieren!
PS: Und auf Youtube das ausführliche Demo von Peter Honoré anschauen - lohnenswert, ein Genuß (wie alle Youtube-Videos von "Danish Pete")!
PS2: Dieselbe Bewertung gilt für den Xotic Super Clean Buffer
