From the vendor

Project overview

Transparent boost pedal with plenty of headroom and gain. This Mesa Boogie Tone Buster-inspired pedal can take your guitar to the limit of saturation and beyond!

Introduction

It’s incredible how a gain boost without any additional overdrive can affect amplifiers in very different ways, and this superb booster pedal is proof of that.

The Boogie Buster preamp is perfect if you need to give some blast to your favorite amp or want more gain and volume for your solos! The bass and treble controls assure versatility to fulfill any need, and it can also provide some subtle cream overdrive sounding to your wave if desired.
