I really liked what this pedal did...Special thanks to my buddy Art(Artietoo) and Evan for helping me with my decision to buy one..Yet another great Seymour Duncan product to add to my ever growing collection... :dance:

Re: Just Treated Myself To The Pickup Booster SFX-01

i was waiting to see if you would buy one...if it gets a thumbs up from you I mighyt just have to take the plunge! I think i'll get one as soon as I can pickup a Tweak fuzz at the same time!

Glad you snagged one . . . waiting to hear your "mod" recommendations! :laugh2:

It was funny, but there was quite a bit of talk about this in the forum while you had mine. (A very short time.) Everytime someone would mention some aspect of it, I'd reach for mine . . . and it wasn't there.

That little thing does grow on ya.

Enjoy, John.

Thanks Artie.....I won't need to mod the circuit,but a nice big 5mm bright blue LED would look cool with the red color of the pedal! LOL....

I can't thank you enough for letting me borrow the pedal...Might not be a big deal to you buddy,but it's the thought that always really matters to me...

The Tweak Fuzz will be my next pedal purchase,and yes the SFX-01 gets my absolute approval for what it does and what it is in it's stock form...No other mods necessary..

How does it sound when used with Humbuckers? Thanks

The Booster is fantastic, completely natural tonally, so it just sounds like my amps tone. I love it bot sc and hb pickups. At the price point it is absurd not to try it out.

It beefs up everything without coloring things too much...I was interested in using the pedal to beef up my split and parallel tones which are normally thin sounding..I'd also take advantage of fatter single coil lead tones with my strats bridge positions..

If you were trying to make your 59 pickup sound like a C5,the pedal would get you pretty close with the lower resonance switch setting..

Sweet... if the master of Pedal Mods says the Pup booster's a good buy, I'm checking that out.
