Think I'm gonna stick to my usual plan: Buy a (used) decent clone for the hell of it, keep it if I like it, flip it if I don't.

Anything out there besides the EQD Bows that's not too pricey and relatively easy to come by in Europe?

Catalinbread Naga Viper has a few more knobs to fiddle with. that might be worth checking out.

You can keep an eye out for the Ghost Effects NR auctions:

muchos gracias, will check out both.

Not sure how available they are, but the two "modern" takes on treble boosters that I've wanted to try were the ARC Gamut and the Smallsound/Bigsound Sparkle Motion.

That BAE Hot Fuzz looks/sounds rill dope. It's big, but I guess if you're going to have a large pedal, might as well make it look like a Neve

But yep, to echo previous comments, treb boosters have a special kind of magic. Aggressive, and really great for cutting through in a band situation. An EQ would def get you in the ballpark, but it's a different sort of thing.

Fuch yeah, I'm a sucker for badass looking peds like that

$225 for a tweaked treble booster though :/

I've had two, recently. A Dirge Rangemaster and a Ghost Effects Hornby Skewes. I've kept the Dirge. Hit skully up. I think he might have one for sale, right now.


edit:
Here's a pretty cool one in BST.

Sparkle Motion is great but not easy to find these days.
A bit gutted I sold mine? I think I could do something similar myself though given a bit of time, it's a rangemaster with an input cap knob for bass content, bias knob and another thing I forgot. Easy enough to do yourself by adding a few pots to a rangemaster which is a very simple circuit.

Update, fwiw:

I just scored a Fairfield Circuitry Accountant. Not particularly on-topic here or anything, it's just that my next gear purchase will now have to wait a while.
Been wanting to put a good compressor on my board ever since I ditched my CS-3 a couple years ago, the accountant's been on my gas list for even longer than that.
Even though it's even less of a treble booster substitute than an eq pedal, a compressor like the accountant does have some boosting capabilities that are worth experimenting with.
