Catalinbread Epoch Boost
Sommige van de meest eerbiedwaardige gitaargoden vertrouwden op een oude tape echo unit om hun legendarische klanken te bereiken. Dit apparaat is de Maestro Echoplex EP-3. Sommige gitaristen maakten veel gebruik van het echo-effect, anderen sleepten er een mee naar elk optreden, alleen vanwege de magische voorversterker. De Epoch Boost vangt diezelfde magische voorversterker in een klein en betrouwbaar pedaal.
Some of the most venerable guitar gods relied on an old tape echo unit to help achieve their legendary tones. This unit is the Maestro Echoplex EP-3. While some guitarists made great use of its echo effect, others dragged one to every gig just for its magical preamp. The Epoch Boost catches that same magical preamp in a small and trustworthy pedal.
Around the shop, we refer to the Epoch Boost as a “mastering pedal,” because it sounds like your base tone, but sculpted to perfection by a mastering engineer. This is accomplished by employing the same internal circuitry as a real EP-3, from the NOS Orange Drop capacitors to the output mixer stage that acts as a rudimentary frequency selector---it’s all there.
Catalinbread has taken the liberty of kicking the internal voltage all the way up to 22 volts, just like the original unit, giving you unparalleled headroom and clarity. Inside, they've included a switchable hi-Z input buffer if you’d like to use the Epoch Boost as your only pedal (don’t worry, we won’t judge). The Boost control gives you just the EP-3 tone when rolled off, but adds up to 20dB of crystal-clear boost as you crank it. And trust us, you’re gonna want to.
