Mayday – Discrete Boost

$143.00

The Mayday is a discrete boost inspired by a classic 60’s treble booster circuit. At its core, this pedal utilizes a single silicon transistor to boost your guitar’s signal and provide additional texture. This pedal preserves the greatness of the treble boosters before it, but also improves upon the design with modern amenities such as: standard center-negative power, a silicon transistor for consistent tone in all environments, and voicing flexibility. The Mayday boost is not for the faint of heart –it’s bold, punchy, and full of character (just look at the size of that knob!) Engage it in those emergency situations when you need just a little more on top: “Mayday, Mayday!”
