RC Booster V2
The updated version of Xotic's legendary transparent clean boost, adding a second gain stage for extra breakup on top of the original's 20dB+ boost and 2-band EQ.
About this pedal
RC Booster V2 rebuilds the original, discontinued RC Booster with an added gain-2 stage for fatter tones and more amp breakup when engaged. It keeps the super-transparent 20dB+ clean boost and +/-15dB two-band active EQ that made the original an always-on staple, and can run at 9-18V for extra headroom. Multi-color LEDs show which switch mode is engaged.
