Golden Booster
The McColson Golden Booster is a versatile and vintage-inspired preamp that packs a punch. Beneath its unassuming exterior lies a meticulously engineered circuit that can breathe new life into your guitar tone. At its core, the Golden Booster is a powerful boost pedal, capable of delivering up to 26dB of clean, transparent gain. This extra headroom can push your amp into rich, harmonically-complex overdrive without sacrificing clarity or dynamics. But the real magic happens when you engage the active two-band EQ. The Bass and Treble controls allow you to sculpt your sound with precision, dialing in the perfect balance of low-end heft and sparkling highs. Whether you need to fatten up a thin single-coil or tame the high-end of a humbucker-equipped guitar, the Golden Booster puts the tone-shaping tools at your fingertips. Vintage-inspired but modernized, the Golden Booster eschews the hum and noise of its predecessors, delivering a pristine, noise-free signal. True bypass ensures your core tone remains intact when the pedal is disengaged, making it a seamless addition to any pedalboard. Rumor has it that the Golden Booster was a secret weapon in the rigs of several acclaimed session guitarists, who relied on its ability to push their amps into glorious, harmonically-rich overdrive. Whether you're looking to thicken up your rhythm tones or unleash scorching lead lines, the McColson Golden Booster is a must-have tool for the discerning guitarist.
