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?

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.

The B&G is a monster! Got mine the other day. Loads of gain, loads of mids, real crunchy.
I have 3x Red Roosters
JMI Rangemaster (Iknow, I know)
Creepy Fingers Brothel Boost (Custom Sugar Boost)
Ghost JHS treble booster
Dice Works JH-S1 Si 2n2222
Dice Works JH-S1 Ge OC44
Champ Treboost+

And I just built a Rangemaster from one of Pigeon's kits
AC30 loves them all (but didn't like the Blind Mary so much for some reason).
Hornby-Skewes for my old Traynors, Rangemasters for the AC30
