TREBLE BOOSTER

SUPER RANGER - PNP Germanium:

N.O.S. OC44 (New Old Stock)

picture Super-Ranger

 

The SUPER RANGER is a high quality clone of the famous 1960´s Dallas R****master. This Vintage Guitar Effect was used in the early years by Rory Gallagher, Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi, Marc Bolan....

This pedal is powered with the same
N.O.S. OC44 vintage germanium transistor as used in the 60´s.

The SUPER RANGER amplifies certain frequencies and adds gain to your notes the higher you play. This will help you to cut thru the mix. This pedal works best with a mild overdriven (cranked) tube amp or into a good overdrive pedal to receive that beautiful rich tone.

This is not a harsh or shrill pedal. It adds sustain, sparkle, overtones and on heavy settings some real nice germanium crunch. This Booster colors your tone in a very musical way.

We added true bypass on/off switching and a 3-way (input cap) switch.

The SUPER RANGER uses a cherry picked N.O.S. OC44 black glass vintage germanium transistor, which is the secret for that sweet liquid tone.

 

 

The SUPER RANGER features:

# Gain selected N.O.S. (New Old Stock) OC44 black glass germanium transistor from the 1960´s
...- tested for Hfe gain, leakage and tone

# 3-way input cap switch (gets from Clapton to Sabbath)
Middle position (classic treble boost): stock R****master
Up position (mid boost): is tuned for single coil guitars
Down position (full boost): full range boost

# Vintage carbon composite resistors
# 3PDT footswitch (true bypass switching) no tone sucking or tone coloring when off
# RF shielded rugged aluminum enclosure
# Chassis mounted input and output jacks (switchcraft)
# Metal shaft alpha pots
# Metal faceplate

# Hand built one at the time
# Finest hand selected and tested components

# Can be used as a lead boost into your overdrive pedal
# Cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar vol control

Power Requirement:
9 volt battery (carbon zinc for best tone)

The SUPER RANGER has a very low power consumption - the battery will last a very long time.

Don´t put a buffered Guitar Effect pedal (non true bypass) between your guitar and the SUPER RANGER. Even when off, a buffered pedal will kill your tone. If you use a buffered pedal put it after the SUPER RANGER.

The SUPER RANGER is a clone of the 1960´s Dallas R****master. As the original the SUPER RANGER doesn´t use a LED or an AC-Jack.

TREBLE BOOSTER

TUBE RANGER - PNP Germanium:

picture oc44-Germanium-Transistor

N.O.S. OC44 (New Old Stock)

 

The TUBE RANGER is the same pedal as the SUPER RANGER without the 3-way input cap switch.
Instead of the switch there is a capacitor socket (to change input capacitors)

For tweaking the pedal, different input capacitors are included

FUN FACE

picture oc44 Transistor

N.O.S. OC44 (New Old Stock)

 

picture Fun-Face

The FUN FACE is a high quality clone of the 1966-1968 Germanium Fuzz F*** which was used by Jimi Hendrix on the first Album "Are you Experienced" and "live at Winterland" and... . We added the Bias and Clean knob, which are inside of the most fuzz clones.

Vol (Volume): Sets the output volume.

Fuzz: Sets the amount of Fuzz.

Bias: Germanium transistors change there gain at different temperatures therefore the bias resistor has been replaced with the bias knob (a variable resistor). This knob controls the amount of voltage to the transistor. Dial in the sweet spot at around 12 o Clock. (4,5 to 5Volt stock Fuzz F***)

Clean: (pre-gain, input trim) This knob acts like your guitar vol knob, back off this knob a little bit to clean up the fuzz tone (very useful with hot humbuckers, active pickups and wah pedals). If you turn this knob full clockwise, it is completely out of the circuit (stock Fuzz F***)

The FUN FACE uses two hand selected N.O.S. OC44 black glass vintage germanium transistors
which are the key for that vintage germanium fuzz tone
.


The FUN FACE features:

# Two gain selected N.O.S. (New Old Stock) OC44 black glass germanium transistors
...- tested for Hfe gain, leakage and tone
# Vintage carbon composite resistors
# RF shielded rugged aluminum enclosure
# 3PDT footswitch (true bypass switching) no tone sucking or tone coloring when off
# Chassis mounted input and output jacks (switchcraft)
# Metal shaft alpha pots
# Metal faceplate

# Hand built one at the time
# Hand selected and tested components
# Very smooth fuzz tone, with just the right amount of gain
# Cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar vol control

Power Requirement:
9 volt battery (carbon zinc for best tone)

The FUN FACE has a very low power consumption - the battery will last a very long time.

Don´t put a buffered Guitar Effect pedal (non true bypass) between your guitar and the FUN FACE. Even when off, a buffered pedal will kill your tone. If you use a buffered pedal put it after the FUN FACE.

The FUN FACE is a clone of the 1966-1968 Germanium Fuzz F***. As the original the FUN FACE doesn´t use a LED or an AC-Jack.

GREEN & MEAN

OVERDRIVE

picture Green&Mean OverdriveThe GREEN&MEAN OVERDRIVE is a true bypass clone of the vintage 808 with some extras.

This pedal produces a transparent smooth vintage overdrive sound.
We use Poly Film Caps, Silver Micas, true bypass switching....., to give you that transparent Texas Blues tone.

The 3-way switch let you select:
Classic
: vintage 808
Mean: more gain and bass
Bass: same gain as in classic but with all the bass flow thru

Power Requirements:
Standard 9 volt DC power adapter
(2,1mm Boss
® or Ibanez® style) not included or
one 9 volt battery.

The GREEN&MEAN OVERDRIVE has high power consumption and the use of a power supply is recommended.

DRIVE & BOOST & FUZZ

THREE IN ONE / 3in1

The GREEN&MEAN OVERDRIVE, the SUPER RANGER and the FUN FACE
- three classic effects in one Pedal.

3 Legendary Clones:

A "V
intage 808"
a " 1960`s Dallas
R****master Germanium Treble Booster" and a
"1966-1968 Germanium Fuzz F*** "

It takes a lot of time to build this pedal!

picture Drive-Boost-Fuzz


The DRIVE & BOOST & FUZZ features:

# Three gain selected N.O.S. (New Old Stock) OC44 black glass germanium transistors from the 1960´s
...- tested for Hfe gain, leakage and tone
# RC4558P or JRC4558D chip
# 3PDT footswitches (true bypass switching) no tone sucking or tone coloring when off
# RF shielded rugged aluminum enclosure
# Chassis mounted input and output jacks (switchcraft)
# Metal shaft alpha pots
# Metal faceplate
# Hand built one at the time
# Hand selected and tested components

Power Requirements:

BOOST & FUZZ (SUPER RANGER and the FUN FACE):
one 9 volt carbon zinc battery (for best tone)

The BOOST & FUZZ has a very low power consumption and therefore the battery will last a very long time.


Power Requirements:

DRIVE (GREEN&MEAN OVERDRIVE) and the 3 LED's:
Standard (2,1mm Boss
®, Ibanez® style) 9 volt DC power adapter not included,
or
one 9 volt battery.
The use of a power adapter is recommended.

TRANSISTORS:


N.O.S (New Old Stock)
OC44 black glass vintage germanium transistors:

picture oc44-Germanium-Transistors
Stored in original manufacture packaging


Even transistors with low leakage and the right gain sound all different, therefore I select
these transistors again by ear for low noise/hiss and best tone.
It does not get any better than this.



Every transistor is tested for Hfe gain, leakage and tone to recreate that
old school vintage guitar tone.

All pedals are built with love and care right down to the last detail.

If you have any questions feel free to ask
