Transparent boost for Friedman Pink taco

[napalmdeath]

I've been using the TC Spark Booster with my DSL as well. I love it!

I just bought a TC Spark Mini - great little pedal that can add a hint of boost, to a ton of boost. Very transparent, quiet, and under $50!

Where did you find it under $50 ?

$49.99 or less on Reverb. Got mine there new for $42 shipped.

I should have probably looked around before I asked cause you`re right there`s a bunch on eBay for less that $50 new. Do find it adds any hint of color or tightness to a medium to high gain tone? I like a boost that tightens bass and adds a little saturation and it`s hard for me at least to find a pedal that does that with going overboard

I don't have a high gain amp, but, the range on the boost knob is pretty wide. So, if you have it set to 7:00, it provides a hair of boost and also tightens things up a bit - at least on my JMP it does.

Get one for $45, and sell it if you don't dig it!

A local store had one for $79.95 ordered one at MF for $49.95 . Thanks for the heads up on the price

Xotic RC Booster. More transparent than my Koko Boost and that's the reason I don't use it. I like the coloration the Koko or an EP Booster add.

RC booster is the best clean boost I've used. Had it for 7-8 years now

Got my Spark Mini today . In the loop of my Splawn SS the clean boost is very transparent and if needed it can supply a huge boost .I'm gonna leave it there for a hint of clean boost and keep a TS type pedal up front for the tightness and a little saturation

I have been using TC Electronic Spark minis recently. I think they are pretty transparent. There may be better ones.

This.

Cool! Cheap enough to just hold onto and use it when you need it.

Spend 30 bucks and try a Danelectro Fish n Chips eq pedal. Great with an already distorted amp. Transparent. My JCM 800 loves it.

Or, a Boss GE-7 if you're not into plastic!

Yeah they are cheap...but I've had a GE 7, MXR...none sounded as transparent as the FnC. Splitting hairs but the Boss colored it beyond what you do with the sliders IMO.
