A good price for a Duncan Pickup Booster?

[Brow]

Hey guys.

I was sat browsing the net earlier and I found a SD Pickup Booster for £55 with shipping, and was wondering if this is a good price?

If it is a good price Imight pick it up and see what I think. Does it work better with Single Coil's or equally good with Humbuckers?

Thanx for any info.

i think it works great with either. i dont use the resonance switch with buckers but sometimes with single coils.
i think $70 is a good price in the states, not sure about your side of the pond.

Thanx for the reply Jeremy.

I've never seen 1 for sale before over here, so I don't know how much they are new.

I think I'll get in and see how I like it. I'm sure I could sell it on if I didn't like it

I bought the Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster for £55 with shipping. So I'll see how I like it when it gets here

its a cool pedal. i tried one when it came out and liked it but didnt love it. since ive been using one recently ive really gotten it to work great with my rigs, now its part of my sound.

Thanx for the post Jeremy.

I know 1 of Sheryl Crow's guitarists use them live, and I loved both of their Overdriven tones when I saw her live. I think I'll like it either as a boost or to change the tone of my Strat's pups using theresonance switch.

I should have it in a few days, so I'll see how I like it when it gets here/

Brow; I really like mine. I don't use the "boost" function much, because I use a modeller, but the resonance switch is great. I use it for singles and hb's. It just gives you two more "tones" to whatever pickup combo you use now.

I especially like the fact that it seems to tame any "ice-picky", or shrill, sounds that you have now. I love it.

It does sound like a cool pedal. I'm sure I'll play around with it and find a way to use it in my rig
