The ThroBak Overdrive Boost is an improved reproduction of the original Colorsound Power Boost pedal, also known as the Colorsound Overdriver. It was used by renowned musicians such as David Gilmour, Jeff Beck, and Marc Bolin, becoming an integral part of 70s signature tones. The pedal features a vintage silicon transistor circuit known for its ability to bring body, dimension, and tonal flexibility to a single-channel tube amp.
Key Features:
- Reproduction of the original Colorsound Power Boost pedal
- Vintage silicon transistor circuit
- Three carefully selected TO-18 metal can Silicon transistors
- Externally switchable pre-gain control with internal pot for customization
- Switchable Germanium transistor and Germanium diode pair
- Bias adjustment for transistors ensuring a perfectly tuned pedal
- Master volume and true bypass footswitch
- Gain, Bass, and Treble adjustment for tonal flexibility
- Flexible and interactive bass and treble controls for added tonal shaping
The pedal is designed to provide everything from a substantial and extremely transparent clean boost to all-out silicon fuzz and every tonal variation in- between. Its flexible bass and treble controls can add treble bite and chime to an overly bassy amp or add a meaty low end to a thin-sounding amp. The Overdrive Boost is almost like its own little amp in a box, capable of delivering amazing clean and distorted tones to any tube amp.
