Range Booster Silicon
Ananashead's Range Booster Silicon is a handcrafted treble booster that pays homage to the legendary one-transistor circuits that defined the sound of 1960s rock. Drawing inspiration from classics like the Range Master, Hornby Skewes, and May Booster, this pedal offers a raw, dynamic boost that emphasizes the midrange and upper frequencies of your guitar tone. What sets the Range Booster Silicon apart is its "Range" control, which allows you to fine-tune the frequency spectrum to perfectly match your guitar and amplifier. Crank it for a searing, cutting lead tone, or dial it back for a smoother, more organic boost. The silicon transistor design provides improved reliability and a better signal-to-noise ratio compared to the original germanium circuits. Sixties guitar heroes like Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, and Gary Moore were known to modify their booster pedals, swapping out the germanium transistors for silicon. This helped them achieve a more robust, consistent sound, while retaining the signature midrange push and touch-sensitive response that made those early boosters so revered. Ananashead has meticulously engineered the Range Booster Silicon to capture that elusive vintage mojo, with premium components, shielded inputs/outputs, and a true bypass switching design. Whether you're looking to drive your amp into glorious saturation or simply want to add some sizzle and presence to your clean tone, this pedal is a must-try for any guitarist seeking that classic rock edge.
