ill keep it in the collection, i just hoped it would work differently than it does. it just seems silly that a pedal called the “bass booster” wouldnt simply boost the bass, and instead COMPLETELY tonally change the signal. its almost like a pickup selector switch well after the guitar..

i think theres more administrators than actual members. im not sure whos who anyways. they should have more descriptive usernames…

anyways, i just think i figured it out. its just a weird pedal. hahaha. basically it seems to work like this…

it seems to create two very separate tones. a low toned drive sound and a high range fuzz. with the fuzz knob all the way to the right, youre getting the loudest volume of the drive tone. as you turn it to the left the volume of that signal drops. a little ways into turning, you hear a very quiet high toned fuzz sound start to rise in volume, eventually the low tone dissapears completely, until you get all the way to the left where the high toned fuzz is at its loudest volume. …thats what it sounds like is happening to me anyways… so you fiddle with it until you get something you like, and then adjust the volume knob till its at a matched level to the clean signal. i think it sounds best around 10pm. at 12pm it sounds sort of flubby and weird, like either tone isnt very defined at its low volume…

this is strange and foreign to me, as im used to my typical method of EH fuzz pedals of “crank all the knobs and thats how it sounds best”

i dunno, im sure someone with some proper background can shed some more light on this..

i paid $350. i really have no idea what these things are actually worth, but i dont think anyone really does. how often do these get sold? i dont think ive never seen one sell and ive scanned through ebay a few times a week for years. either way, given 70s muffs sell for $350 any day of the week, i think that price was pretty on point if not an outright deal. hard to say. either way im totally stoked. its one of those ‘it is what is is, and how often do you see it’ things. ive seen some of the other pedals from this era with $600-900 price tags, both selling and nonselling. so who knows.

dunno how it sounds yet, i saw it listed on GC’s used gear listings and called the store. paid by CC and theyre shipping it for free.

mine came from MI.

hmm.

lemme know how yours works.
