Description
The Fender Hammertone Boost is a flexible, two-voice boost pedal that gives you clean headroom or vintage-style warmth in one compact, board-friendly enclosure. Whether you're looking to push your amp, fatten up your tone, or simply add a little presence for solos, this pedal is a smart tool to have in the chain. It's a solid fit for players who want tonal options without overcomplicating things-and it plays well in just about any genre or setup.
With the Type switch, you can toggle between two different boost circuits: a transparent opamp-based boost for clean volume lift, or a JFET boost that adds harmonically rich character and slight compression reminiscent of old tape machine preamps. Treble and Bass knobs offer active EQ control, both with center detents for quickly dialing in a flat response or fine-tuning your tone without guesswork. Whether you're boosting mids for solos or tightening up a darker rig, the EQ is intuitive and effective.
Soft-touch relay switching keeps things quiet, and the pedal defaults to true bypass even if power is lost. With top-mounted jacks and a rugged aluminum housing, it's ready for the road. We've used it in front of clean amps, dirt pedals, and modelers-it always brings something useful to the table without getting in the way.
