HS Hornby-Skewes Treble Booster

The BSM HS Treble Booster is a time-honored tone machine that has graced the rigs of legendary guitarists. Based on the coveted Hornby-Skewes unit used by the inimitable Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple, this pedal delivers the same powerful, biting tone that fueled hard-hitting anthems like "Smoke on the Water" and "Burn." Featuring the original germanium transistors, the HS Treble Booster unleashes a rich, harmonically-complex boost that's perfect for single-coil equipped guitars. Dial in just the right amount of gain, and you'll uncover Blackmore's iconic lead tones from the Deep Purple and early Rainbow catalogs. The optional volume control allows you to fine-tune your output level, ensuring your boosted signal seamlessly integrates with your amp's natural overdrive. Where many modern overdrives and boosters can sound thin or sterile, the HS retains the organic, touch-sensitive response of those legendary '60s and '70s treble boosters. It's a versatile tool that excels at thickening up your tone, pushing your amp into glorious saturation, and adding an extra dimension of clarity and articulation to your playing. Whether you're chasing Blackmore's searing leads or simply seeking to breathe new life into your single-coil-equipped rig, the BSM HS Treble Booster is a must-have addition to your pedal arsenal. It's a direct line to the golden age of British rock guitar tone.
