GOLDEN BOY OVERVIEW
"The bluesbreaker circuit has been my favorite overdrive
circuit forever. I have a collection of clones that I love. The
Golden Boy takes that classic tasteful circuit adds some 3D
depth, marries it with the modern ideas of Brad Jackson and
turns it into an absolute Swiss Army knife for just about any
pedalboard." - Joey Landreth
The GOLDEN BOY is a very flexible overdrive with 4 presets for clipping options,
an innovative gain adjustment feature that we call GAIN CYCLE, and a 3 band
active EQ for maximum tonal flexibility. To top it off, we added a boost circuit
which is the same type of MOSFET boost circuit found on our top
selling
BOOST OVERVIEW
The boost circuit is in its own true bypass loop which means it can be used
independently of the DRIVE circuit. The boost circuit in the GOLDEN BOY is a
MOSFET based boost much like the AMP MODE found in our best
selling
Preamp pedal. To activate/deactivate the boost circuit simply press
the BOOST footswitch.
One of the things that makes the boost in the GOLDEN BOY different from other
boosts on the market is that it has 4 presets available. Each preset is EQ’d slightly
differently to allow it to alter how it interacts with the overdrive circuit in the
GOLDEN BOY or any other pedal you may have in your rig
Preset 1
– YELLOW LED: Bright Boost.
Very useful for creating a thinner sound
or when boosting a thick sounding
overdrive.
