Sound: This thing is exactly what the manufacturer says it is. I bought it to thicken-up my single coil strat pickups when needed. No, it doesn't make a strat sound like a les paul, but it does make it sound like a strat with humbuckers. ...Which is perfect! I can have single coil sweetness, or, click the button and get humbucker bite when needed. I find myself using the clean boost even when not using the resonant shift. It really brings out that strat "sparkle and chime" on clean amp settings. This pedal should come with every single-coil guitar sold. Feature: n/a. I guess a power supply would be cool, but few pedals come with one anyway. Ease of Use: The pedal is completely transparent. A blind monkey could use this and it would sound great. Quality: Built like a tank. Value: Worth every penny. Best pedal I ever bought! Manufacturer Support: n/a. Perfect out of the box. Never needed to contact them. The Wow Factor: "Sex appeal?" We're talking about a pedal, right? I like the red color... But we've agreed to keep the relationship professional. Overall: The search for the perfect clean-boost pedal is over. This is it. Even if you never use the resonance shifting, the clean boost does exactly what one should do: boost the signal without coloring the sound. The resonance shifting is just icing on an already awesome cake!

Sound: I'm not sure how to rank this as it doesn't actual change your sound, just cleanly boost it. Feature: Clean boost AND settings to change the tone of a single coil pickup to sound like a humbucker. I haven't played with that though. Ease of Use: On/off, how much boost. Quality: Like a rock Value: Got it used at half off, can't complain at all Manufacturer Support: N/A Overall: This is mostly in response to the review below mine. I can't have this decent pedal have a terrible review for it. It probably didn't do anything for his amp because his amp is a piece. If you have a tube amp it will definately over-drive it, that's what all clean boosts do. It's great for bumping up your volume for a solo, or boosting a weak pickup. Single coil's always sound quieter than humbuckers, I use the pedal to boost my strat to the same vol as my Les Paul. Perfect for switching guitars, otherwise the singl coil won't push the amp and other pedals the same.

Sound: I use it to boost my trombone volume for solos. I WANT a clean boost in volume to have my sound clear & loud, to be heard over the R&B band I play with. Product would be better if when on, it allowed you a range of volume from totally off to very loud. There is not enough sensitivity in the first quarter turn of the volume knob. Product is clean with no background noise, which is a good thing. I haven't found another product that will do the job any better. Feature: I use a power supply - not batteries. Works great Ease of Use: Very easy to use Quality: On/Off Button should be replaced with the method used on BOSS pedals, which is a quiter on/off, and doesn't wear out. Manufacturer Support: Company very nice.

Sound: If you need a clean channel boost this is the pedal for you. But who needs a clean channel boost?? When you stomp on this thing on your distortion channel all you get is white noise.It doesn't boost anything at all except loud obnoxious noise. I returned it and ordered a MXR boost pedal and I am hoping it will be better than the Seymour junk pedal. Feature: no accessories and it eats up batteries like its going out of style Ease of Use: different choice of db boost but none of them boost a distorted signal. Quality: .... Value: no value at all to a rock guitarist looking for an edge in the lead boost department. Manufacturer Support: useless
