Bring a bit of Californian treble boost sunshine into your life. Kindly donated by Chris at R2R Electric, this is another lot from a builder at the top of their game, and who very rarely has items available without preordering.
NOTE: This pedal ships direct from the USA so we’ll work out and adjust tax and shipping as necessary once we know where the buyer is located.

Every R2R Electric unit is built with a combination of New Old Stock (NOS) & vintage components recycled from 1950’s & 1960’s audio gear
Here are the specs:
Repurposed 1973 Dynair “Mini-Fade” video editing tool enclosure
Original Dallas Rangemaster circuit with 6 position rotary tone selector switch
1966 RCA brand 2N404a germanium transistor
1961 CTS 10k potentiometer

1962 & 64 Philips “Mustard Cap” input capacitors

*Due to the nature of this circuit, these pedals work best placed first in your signal chain. If you are using any buffered bypass pedals (ie: Boss, MXR, etc..) this pedal need to be placed before it in the signal chain. Please feel free to contact me with any questions*
**This pedal can be powered by 9v battery (included) or with a standard Boss/One Spot style 9v power supply**
***Please note that these pedals will not work in a power daisy chain with other pedals that use a standard negative center power supply like a Boss or One Spot. It will need its own isolated power source either it’s own separate power adapter or it works well with a Voodoo Labs or similar power brick***
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Each of my pedals are made with high quality vintage components, either NOS (New Old Stock) or pulled from vintage audio equipment.
Each component is tested and matched to each pedal for optimum tone.
I back each pedal with a lifetime warranty so if it ever stops working, send it back and I’ll repair it at no charge (aside from intentional damage)
Every pedal is hand built in Los Angeles, CA
