After the boost is first powered up, it takes about ten seconds before the error correction circuit correctly biases the germanium transistor After this things get interesting....we can hear how having the boost engaged makes guitar signals sound more musical...even when set at the same volume as the bypassed tone. Notes are given a simultaneously smoother and more detailed character, like a compressor but different. Some people we\u2019ve shown it to have noted that it appears to deemphasize the unwanted parts of a signal and enhance the good. It\u2019s killer on bass. It helps acoustic guitar pickups sound more natural. And of course it\u2019ll push your amp into a frenzy.   This pedal is for use only with a 9vdc Boss syle center negative power supply. There is space for a battery which is activated when a cable is plugged into the input, and there is no power supply plugged into the DC jack.
