Hello;
I am looking for a clean boost or gain stompbox pedal.It will be mainly used for regular guitar(Tele or Strat ) & used is fine.Looking for something that will not change the tone when kicked on OR has enough controls on it to dial it where i want it to be..Don't want to spent a small fortune on one either. Let me know if you have something that you think will do the job. If you do not own one now BUT used to own a pedal like this,let me know your opinion on that pedal also please.
You can reply to this post or email me - whatever you prefer.
Thanks Ron

I have a Seymour Duncan pickup booster I wouldn't part with. Lots of clean boost and some eq switches meant to thicken things up. Built like a tank. You do see them used once in a while.
MXR micro amps are supposed to be good too, and are inexpensive.

I highly recommend a Sonic Boom by Nick Greer. Makes your guitars sound better. Really great pedal in front of a tube amp. My Music Man didn't love it, though.

Hi Ron,

You might like this Carl Martin Crunch Drive. I'll sell for $80 shipped, and if it's not for you, just return it and I'll refund your money.

The Sonic Stomp by BBE is the best tone booster I have found for the money. You could say it is a poor mans S T G BLACK BOX. It has controls to dial in a wide range of tones like the "Z" knob does on the BLACK BOX. Musicians Friend has them for around a $100.
