AC Booster V2
A touch-sensitive overdrive/boost with a 2-band active EQ and onboard compression and mid-boost voicing switches for dialing in amp-like breakup.
About this pedal
AC Booster V2 reacts to pick dynamics much like a cranked tube amp, offering everything from a warm, crunchy overdrive to a clean boost with a roll-back of your guitar’s volume. A 4-position internal DIP switch adds compression, classic or modern gain voicing, and low- or high-mid boost options, while front-panel Treble and Bass controls shape the tone further.
