I am gassing really hard over the RC and AC boosters, I am thinking of selling my Diamond Pedals fire burst to get an AC boost and eventually a RC too. Are these pedals worth the money?

Re: Major Xotic Gas
YES.
i just had a performance this evening, and my Xotic BB Preamp and AC Booster saw some serious action. Started with a basic clean tone, fattned it up with my Tone Press compressor, and then used the BB for warm, rounded OD/distortion and the AC for punchy, jangly light crunch. Tone heaven.
Great pedals, great tone. Once you have one, you'll want the rest. They cover a wide spectrum of tone/uses.
definitely worth the money. but you must either try before you buy or buy from a place with a decent exchange policy. You might buy the RC and hate it, because what you really wanted was the AC. or something like that. I highly recommend pedalgeek.com - it's where I get most of my pedals, including Xotic stuff.
Cheers

I own the AC Booster. It's ok, not as great as all the endorsers claim it to be if you listen to them on the website.
I have a lot of distortion pedals including an old RAT, TS-9, DS-1, MXR Dist+, and on and on...
I like it but it hasn't made me retire my other pedals.

Re: Major Xotic Gas
Are you looking for a CLEAN boost or something with gain to it? The RC is really clean. The AC boost has more gain to it, but in all honesty their are other pedals out there that do what the AC does but better. I'd have to seriously recommend the LovePedal Eternity over the AC.
