The Skewer by Catalinbread is a treble booster pedal designed to provide a range of frequency response adjustments and gain control. It is based on the Hornby-Skewes Treble Booster, offering the ability to dial in the desired frequency range from rich and full to treble-heavy, as well as control the amount of boost. The pedal features the following technical specifications:
- SKEW: Adjusts the frequency response of the boost, which also slightly
affects the gain. When dialed fully counter-clockwise, you get full range and
max gain.
- BOOST: Adjusts the amount of boost.
- EXTRA: Adjusts the level of gain extracted from the transistor.
The Skewer operates with a 9V power supply center-negative and draws 1mA. It has an input impedance of 100k and an output impedance of 8k. The dimensions of the pedal are 4.33” X 2.36” X 1.93” and it weighs 0.46 lbs.
Additionally, the pedal features an internal trimmer for master volume control and includes noise reduction filter and anti-pop switch circuitry. It is designed to work well with the DREAMCOAT pedal and offers a range of tonal possibilities for guitarists.
