Quick Pickup Booster Demo - With Tele

[Stevo]

This is a quick demo to try and display the frequency settings.

This is my ash tele with a custom shop bg1400 bridge pickup. I played through my plexi reissue, using a mass attenuator for the dirty parts. I used a shure 57 mic. There are no effects and there's not a backing track.

Time - Freq Setting
00:00 - none
00:23 - 1
00:50 - 2
01:22 - none
01:40 - 1
02:00 - 2

Nice clip, I too love the pedal and it is beautiful with my old amps. No coloration at all.

good demo, Stevo

you did a good job of holding back, but we knew you'd have to ROCK in the end

seriously, a good example of the spectrum of sounds with the Booster, and the tele's a good choice for showing that

Is this sortof like the frequency altering knob on some of the gibson guitars like the es-137 custom. Its a knob which cuts out certain frequencies i think, i loved using it when i had mine. It was great for cleans!

Its a knob which cuts out certain frequencies i think

Yes it's a bandpass filter that shifts the initial resonant frequency by cutting some and passing others.
The boost is very cool too, but it's hard to demo a volume boost

The non-coloration of the volume boost and the frequency shift (mainly for making single coils sound like humbuckers) are both very nice features of this pedal

Re: Quick Pickup Booster Demo - With Tele

Can the frequency shift make a PAF-class humbucker sound like a high-output HB?

Yes I can get higher output tones with my Seth Lover. I think the frequency shift is the best attribute of this thing
