EAE Halberd & Benson Germanium Boost

OVERDRIVE
BOOSTER

Description

This pedal is a 2-in-1 combo featuring the Halberd overdrive alongside a Germanium Boost. The Halberd delivers transistor-flavored overdrive with weight and clarity; the Germanium Boost uses an automatic biasing circuit to elevate even low-grade transistors into a lively gain stage. Both sides are individually foot-switchable. By default the Boost feeds the Halberd, but you can use separate inputs/outputs and route in series, swap order, or even run in parallel.
