EP Booster : Old classic
Everyone knows the history of the Echoplex III Preamp and people using it without delay. Sure this is emulating the sound. But it is more then that.
Build like a tank. Small but mighty. It keeps your guitar and amp original sound but just make everything sweeter. As a boost it is a full range boost and for me it is a great for always on pedal or solo boost. It can't do the job of mid push or treble boost as it was not meant to do it. Awesome sounding pedal. Works with 18V and profits from it.
It has internal dip switches that changes it's character.
It is very small pedal but it still has place for the 9 V battery!??
Plus 20 dB is enough to be used as nice first stage in gain stacking situations no matter do you boost amp or another pedal. It's pretty neutral character (full range) works with everything.
So many good things bout this pedal. It is a classic.
Negatives? Hmm hard to find any. Well for someone it might be negative that it starts from default + 3dB or from Unisom level. So one can't make things quieter with it although I do not have use for that anyways. But if you have to have it it is not going to do it. Someone might say dip switches should be accessible from the outside but others would hate that. I find it good as it is.
Price might be mentioned by some people but actually for a boutique pedal as it is this is not expensive and if you just want a boost pedal for less money feel free. I own quite a few pedals and one of them is a TC Spark mini. It is great pedal and way cheaper. But it is not same. This one is just simply great.
