Features
The DEPT.10 BOOST is the ultimate high voltage valve boost pedal. Combining a
Class A gain stage and natural sounding passive James-Baxandall EQ this class-
leading pedal is like adding two extra hot valve stages to your amp to ensure the
maximum delivery of precious dynamics and tone. Other features include an all-
valve cut and boost tone section and a high level output specially designed to drive
your valve amp hard.
This is an extremely flexible pedal and can be used into a clean amp as a volume
boost, an additional valve equalisation, or to drive your amplifier into dynamic valve
overdrive.
