This pedal will transform your guitar rig! Don't let the Vertex Boost MKII's name fool you-it's much more than a mere boost. Make no mistake, this multifunction guitar pedal can function as a gain booster, with +16dB of ultra-transparent gain that can either drive your amp into saturation or give your solos a squeaky-clean level bump, depending on where you choose to deploy it. Able to accommodate both line- and instrument-level signals, the Boost MKII also includes ultra-linear input/output buffers that are guaranteed to elevate the sound of your entire rig. This stompbox's buffers can propel a typical mid-level rig into pro-level territory with zero tonal coloration. And if your rig is already 99% of the way there, the Boost MKII will deliver that elusive missing 1%. Beyond that, the Boost MKII's insert jack enables you to adjust your volume via an external treadle-style pedal while keeping your guitar's signal completely isolated-it's like plugging straight into your amp. Boasting a compact enclosure that's 33% slimmer than its predecessor, the Vertex Boost MkII belongs on every tone-obsessed guitarist's pedalboard. OFFERS MORE THAN +16DB OF EXTRA GAIN WITH ZERO SONIC COLORATION While the Boost MKII offers a myriad of useful functions, it's a clean booster pedal at heart. Its straightforward Level knob ranges from unity gain to a healthy +16dB. Placing the Boost MKII in front of your amp or dirt boxes adds saturation and sustain to your signal, while placing it after your preamp and dirt boxes gives you a full-range level increase. Best off all, the Boost MKII doesn't change the tone of anything that comes before it's sonically invisible. INPUT AND OUTPUT BUFFERS OPTIMIZE YOUR SIGNAL PATH FOR MAXIMUM TONE Guitarists are always searching for new ways to elevate the sound of their rig. Thanks to its top-shelf input and output buffers, the Vertex Boost MKII will do just that. How can a set of buffers transform a noisy, novice-sounding rig into a quiet, pro-level one? For starters, these buffers condition your rig's entire analog signal path, ensuring optimal input and stable output. They also exhibit an unprecedented level of linearity, while ensuring zero coloration of your signal-even with dozens of stompboxes in your chain. The Boost MKII's input buffer compensates for pickups with different impedances, ensuring that both single-coil- and humbucker-equipped guitars retain every ounce of their tone, while its output buffer tackles arena-sized cable runs like a a champ. Got a hissy, interference-prone passive effects loop? Not anymore - the Boost MKII will convert it into a max-quality, whisper-quiet active loop. CONTROL YOUR VOLUME WITH AN EXTERNAL VOLUME OR EXP PEDAL On the rear of the Boost MKII, you'll find a 1/8-inch TRS insert. This enables you to control your volume using an external treadle-style pedal. When the Boost

Rediscover the legendary tone that started the boutique overdrive revolution with the Warm Audio ODD Box Hard-Clipping Overdrive Pedal. Modeled after one of the most revered and collectible pedals in guitar history, the ODD Box captures every nuance of its inspiration’s dynamic, amp-like drive while improving reliability and flexibility for today’s players. From subtle clean boost to full-blown saturation, this pedal delivers the touch sensitivity, harmonic richness, and midrange presence that have made its predecessor a staple among professional guitarists for decades. The ODD Box’s dual-voice design gives players two distinct tonal flavors at the flick of a switch. In US mode, you’ll enjoy dynamic response, increased headroom, and smooth breakup perfect for blues, rock, and fusion styles. Switch to UK mode for early saturation, boosted gain, and cutting upper mids that channel the grit and chime of classic British amps. Together, these two voicings offer unmatched versatility — whether you’re pushing a clean amp, tightening a dirty channel, or stacking with other drives.Under the hood, the ODD Box is a testament to Warm Audio’s obsession with authentic analog tone. Its through-hole circuit board mirrors the original’s layout and components, using TL082CP op-amps, 2N7000 transistors, and carefully matched resistors and capacitors for vintage-correct response. The result is an overdrive that feels natural and organic, responding dynamically to your pick attack and guitar volume like a real tube amplifier.Built for gigging musicians, the ODD Box features true bypass switching, ensuring your tone remains pure when the pedal is off, and side-mounted thumbscrews that let you swap batteries on the fly without tools. The pedal’s heavy-duty steel enclosure and durable finish guarantee years of reliable performance. Whether you’re chasing transparent boost, creamy sustain, or edge-of-breakup drive, the Warm Audio ODD Box gives you boutique overdrive tone that’s faithful to the original — at a price every guitarist can love.
Electro-Harmonix LPB-3 Linear Power Booster & EQ. Sculpt your tone to any shape with the LPB-3! The effect that launched Electro-Harmonix gets a makeover with the Electro-Harmonix LPB-3 Linear Power Booster & EQ. With an active EQ featuring a powerful Parametric Mids control and up to a walloping 33dB of boost, the LPB-3 is the perfect tool for any tone tailoring task. Boost your sound into saturated bliss with transformative precision like never before. Housed in EHX’s Nano-sized chassis, the LPB-3 is capable of boosting up to +33dB of clean gain with the powerful tone shaping of a 3-band EQ with parametric Mids. The active 3-Band EQ features TREBLE and BASS knobs to control the highs and lows plus a powerful parametric Mids control with adjustable MID FREQ and Q. BOOST sets the overall output of the pedal with the MAX switch toggling between 20dB and 33dB of maximum boost. Use the PRE-GAIN knob to fine-tune the total gain and volume of the boost. This booster pedal’s additional features include selectable Buffered/True Bypass switching and internally extended 30V power rails for enhanced headroom. Product Highlights: Active EQ for precision tone sculpting. Parametric MIDS section cuts through any mix. Up to 33dB of boosting power. High voltage rails, extended headroom. Selectable Buffered/True Bypass. Inspired by the effect that launched Electro-Harmonix in 1968, the LPB-1! Product Features: Power Jack: Insert the output plug of the supplied AC Adapter into the power jack. The LPB-3 requires 120mA at 9VDC on center-negative plug. Do not exceed 12VDC at the power jack. The LPB-3 does not take batteries. Max Switch: Boosts the gain at the output stage, and sets the maximum gain of the LPB-3 - from Input to Output - to either 33dB or 20dB. Set MAX to 20dB for greater dynamics; set MAX to 33dB to drive the signal harder and potentially send your amp into saturation along with higher BOOST knob settings. MID LVL Knob: Boosts or cuts the MID EQ. Turn the MID LBL knob clockwise from its noon position to boost the MID EQ frequency. Turn MID LBL counterclockwise to cut MID EQ. Set MID LVL to its center position for a flat MID EQ response. Treble Knob: Boosts or cuts frequencies above 3.25kHz. Turn the TREBLE knob clockwise from noon to boost the high end. Turn the knob counterclockwise to cut highs. Set TREBLE to its center position for a flat treble response. Pre-Gain Knob: Adjusts input gain from 0dB (unity) to 20dB before the signal hits the EQ circuitry. Use PRE-GAIN in conjunction with BOOST and MAX to fine-tune the total volume and gain through the LPB-3. Pro tip: If the EQ knobs are set in the boost half of their range, signal clipping can be avoided by decreasing PRE-GAIN. If the EQ settings are set to cut, turn up PRE-GAIN for more volume. MID FREQ Knob: Adjusts the MID EQ center frequency, which is boosted or cut by the MID LVL knob. The frequency range of this knob is 240Hz to 3.3kHz. Pro tip: For a brighter sound, try cutting the low MIDs by setting MID FREQ to 10 o'clock and MID LVL to 11 o'clock. Bass Knob: Boosts or cuts frequencies below 240Hz. Turn BASS clockwise from the noon position to boost the low end. Turn the knob counterclockwise to cut. Leave BASS in its center position for a flat bass response. Output Jack: Audio output jack. Output impedance 660Ω; Max Out: +22dBu. Input Jack: Audio input jack. Input impedance 1MΩ; Max In: +20dBu. Footswitch and Status LED: The footswitch engages or bypasses the effect. The status LED lights when the effect is engaged and is off while in bypass. Product Specifications: Circuit: Analog. Bypass: Selectable Buffered / True Bypass. Audio: Mono. Power Supply: 9.6VDC-200mA power adapter included. Dimensions (in): 4.5 x 2.75 x 2.1. Current Draw: 120mA. Year Released: 2024.
