MICRO AMP

$105.99Reference price

A clean booster that raises volume by up to 26dB with a single GAIN knob. Because it lifts level without changing tone, it works for volume boosts in solos or for pushing an amp or overdrive harder. With the gain kept low, it also functions as a buffer.

The classic clean booster that raises volume without changing tone

With a simple layout of just a GAIN knob, it works for both guitar and bass. It is designed to control volume purely, with no change to the tone, over a range of up to 26dB.

Up to 26dB of clean boost

Raising the GAIN knob increases the boost amount, lifting the volume by up to 26dB. It suits volume boosts in solo parts, or pushing the input of an amp or overdrive to emphasize distortion.

Use as a buffer

With GAIN kept low, it functions as a buffer without changing volume. It can also compensate for the high end that is easily lost over long cables, or even out the level difference between single-coils and humbuckers.

  • Up to +26dB of clean boost
  • Simple control layout with only a GAIN knob
  • Adjusts volume without changing tone
