Baron and Beagle Boost
The Fireman FX Baron and Beagle Boost is a versatile and dynamic preamp pedal that's sure to breathe new life into your guitar tone. Designed by the sonic alchemists at Fireman FX, this pedal packs a serious punch, delivering a robust and harmonically-rich boost that can push your amp into glorious, saturated overdrive. At its core, the Baron and Beagle is a two-stage boost circuit, with separate controls for each stage. The first stage offers up to 20dB of clean boost, perfect for adding some extra oomph to your signal and driving your amp a little harder. The second stage dials in a touch of harmonically-complex gain, fattening up your tone and imbuing it with a touch of grit and snarl. But this pedal is no one-trick pony. Subtle adjustments to the controls allow you to dial in everything from a mild mid-range bump to a raunchy, high-gain distortion. It's a remarkably versatile tool, equally at home in front of a clean amp as it is pushing a cranked stack. Rumor has it that the late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan was a fan of Fireman FX's work, and it's easy to hear why the Baron and Beagle would have been right up his alley. If you're after a boost pedal that can do it all - from clean boost to searing lead tones - this could be the one for you.
