Fender Hammertone Boost

Description

Fender Hammertone Boost

A true dual-threat: The Hammertone® Boost pushes your signal to new heights with two distinct boost modes in one unit. Use the Type toggle to select between a clean and pristine op-amp boost circuit, designed for uncolored volume amplification, and a JFET-based boost that saturates your signal with a touch of harmonically rich compression, reminiscent of vintage tape recorder preamps. Dial in a perfectly flat boost with ease thanks to the center detents on the Treble and Bass controls, or sculpt each knob to your heart’s content, boosting and cutting frequencies as you see fit. This all-in-one boost pedal can perform uncolored solo boosts, push your amp into breakup, sweeten your base tone, and so much more.
