Gimmie some boost options

Some great recommendations here.

Unless I missed it, I would add the MXR Micro Amp to the list. And, this might surprise some since it's cheap, but the TC Mojo Mojo might be perfect for what you want. You have EQ, low gain, dynamic.

What sort of guitar / pickups are you using? If you're using humbuckers, that may be the source of the extra mids you're hearing. If you mostly like the Soul Food but find it harsh and grainy, a better klone like the J Rockett Archer may suit you.

+1 to the humbuckers point. Maybe moving the pickups away from the strings helps.

IME the soul food doesn't get harsh until you crank up the gain.

Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. Most appreciated.

Moving the pickups isn't really an option, I've got them dialed in exactly where I want them. So they sound as good as they ever will through everything else in my setup.

Super interested to see what works for you in the end.

It's gonna be a tight one, for sure. Gig in two weeks. Will let you know. Gonna need a new pedal board as well if I'm gonna be able to house everything

Me too. And I say that because he couldn't get ANY of these to work.

Xotic SL Drive
MXR Il Torino
MXR FET driver
Mad Professor Sweet Honey
Way Huge Saucy Box
Budda Zenman boost/OD (rebadged Carl Martin DC drive)
T.Rex Mudhoney
EHX Soul Food (Supposedly Klon clone)
EHC OD Glove (OCD clone)

I was going to say MXR Micro Amp - but that would be an obvious fail for this individual. I'm throwing in the "can't be happy" flag. Like I said - if NONE of the above worked for you, you have an OCD problem....and I'm not talking about the pedal.

Re: Gimmie some boost options

Keeley Katana or Time Machine Boost.... or some other treble booster should do it.

Ouch, harsh [emoji1]

Nobutsrsly, basically all of them were too gainy. End result was this fuzzy over-saturated sound, think more blown speaker rather than overdrive or distorted

I'm not well versed enough in this stuff, evidently. Isn't a treble booster just for added high end, as the name suggests?

Yes and no. It drives the preamp tubes harder, but because its cutting off bass, then the mods also bloom. Wait...

Re: Gimmie some boost options

I know exactly what you need. An original gold Klon Centaur. Go light on the gain knob, using it primarily as a clean boost. Check ebay and reverb. Great deals abound.

Seems legit, bro
