Germanium Boost (Black)

Germanium Boost (Black)
BOOSTER
Description
Designed and handcrafted in Portland, Oregon, the Germanium Boost is a linear clean boost pedal built around a single germanium transistor. It incorporates a proprietary voltage-controlled error-correction circuit that automatically biases the transistor, rendering it immune to thermal drift, component leakage, and environmental temperature fluctuations. The circuit is engineered with elevated input impedance and expanded headroom to prevent unwanted input clipping or low-end signal loss. A single level control manages the overall volume output, providing transparent, musical boost and subtle harmonic enhancement without altering the underlying core frequency response. Internal power management accommodates a standard 9 V DC power supply or a 9 V battery, requiring approximately ten seconds upon initial power-up for the self-biasing network to stabilize.
