Seymour Duncan Killing Floor High-Gain Boost Pedal

No longer available at zZounds
There are boost pedals, and then there's the Killing Floor. Add up to a whopping 34dB to your signal and cut or boost highs for your ideal lead tone.

The Seymour Duncan Killing Floor High Gain Boost gives you both a volume boost and a musical amp-like overdrive all in one, with an unmistakable, undeniable bluesy feel. Use it to boost your overall output for solos, to push an amp further into overdrive, or for a beefy, expressive solo tone. It's also great as an 'always on' pedal for adding the finishing touch to your tone; it's like an overall enhancer for your entire sound.

The single control knob gives you up to a whopping 34 dB of additional gain for amazing range, from subtle boost to brash chords to a full, fat overdriven lead, while the 3-way Voicing toggle switch lets you sculpt your high end with a boost at 10K, a cut at 4.8K or a flat setting. Use this switch to take the bite out of overly bright single coils, put more sting into a dark humbucker or to add crystal clear, boutique-style airiness to your tone.

I've purchased amps all my life that had good distortion, but there was just something missing. Finally, I ended up owning an Engl Gigmaster 310 combo amp (Don't ask me how). The distortion was, again, good, but not great.Well this pedal, my friends, turns a Frankenstein into a Godzilla. This is super loud, or makes your amp super loud. Very saturated, rich distortion. Everything I've ever wanted. This won't be the best review ever but if you want something to kick your amp's distortion to the next level, this is the pedal. This is not a tube screamer... This is a tube annihilator. I mean my amp was fine after using this pedal... but you know what I mean.If I was playing a loud rock gig, I seriously could have used my little Engl combo in a stadium. That's how much it boosted and overall reshaped the distortion. Amazing pedal. Very highly recommend.
