Let's hear about treble boosters!
Hot Damn:
Red Rooster, Phat Phuk, Ghost Treble Boost - I think I want one. I have no idea which one is good for what, which are the differences and if they are useful for me at all. I think it might be nice to have one of them push my fuzzes with top-end frequencies or my amp into gnarly territories. I use a Roost (check my signature), it's pretty dark sounding itself and loves dark sounding fuzzies. Will it play well with a Treble Boost?
What can you tell me?

i have this one:

wanna try? can send it...
mode 5 is awesome with bass - so my work with your sound conceivabilities
the mode 1 is really treble boost and then it goes through the bands down. I really like this feature.

What does that mean? Sounds good though, do you build such a thing, Ian?

yeah, guitmatt from the board actually has one but without a cap blend, also i think creepy fingers is doing something similar soon.
it's a nice alternative to the rangemaster.
