A Booster & basic EQ all in one
Pro:
- 16dB of gain is enough to elevate your solos above the noise & can push your tubes into singing breakup
- 4 external trim pots: high cut, hi mid boost, low mid boost, bass boost
- true or buffered bypass (internal control)
- add headspace by supplying up to 18V
- sturdy, solid construction
- miniature format lets you squeeze it onto a tight pedalboard
Con:
- tiny gain control
- "only" 16 dB compared to the 20 dB of the EP Booster and the Super Sweet
If you're looking for a booster, look no further. If you want enough gain to go into overdrive, pick the super sweet. If you prefer a less sensitive gain pot, go for the super clean.

Great
There are other useful boosters (actually I've got two more that I do like a lot, one of which I use with an expression pedal for volume, and another that provides EP3 grit), but this is so clean... Not much gain but enough to enhance the sound of the amp. And it is a little tank, heavy...but tiny!

Vielseitig, aber nicht so clean bzw. flat wie der Name es vermuten lässt
Ein Super Gerät, nur ist die Vermarktung irreführend. Das Gerät wendet immer irgendeine EQ-Kurve an, welche in der Bedienungsanleitung auch dokumentiert ist. Darüber spricht komischerweise kaum jemand.
Wer also einen komplett cleanen (=flat) boost möchte, ist hier NICHT an der richtigen Adresse.
Ich finde den Boost trotzdem super und verwende ihn um Single Coils auf Humbucker Lautstärke zu bringen oder als Solo-boost. Hierbei setze ich den high cut dip switch in Kombination mit meiner Tele, da es für meinen Geschmack sonst zu schrill wird.

Definitely always on
After a few weeks of use, I can definitely testify that this pedal is indeed always on. However, for me it is not as much of a set-it-and-forget-it pedal as Pete of Denmark describes. When switching guitars, I do adjust at least the gain, and am still finding my sweet spot on the pin switches.
Strong recommend.

It is what I never knew my tone was missing.
Hooked this up and ran it with a very light boost into a Soldano clean channel and it came alive, lovely musical new harmonics sprang out and the whole sound gained a sparkle without being spikey or trebly.
It is my new always on peddle.
Worth it.

Small in the eye
Initially I got it for the buffer but in using it I have a big update in the clean sound. Suddenly everything is clear and full of real thick sound, full of truth !! I have it at the end of the chain and it helps all the other pedals get their value. Especially in an amplifier lamp does wonders! I fell in love with it.

High quality booster
This is a high quality booster and a great sounding one !!!
I use the high cut switch to avoid unpleasant highs and set the main knob at around 10 o'clock to have a boost on my lead sounds whenever i need some more db's !! That's it. It's simple, sounds great what else should i ever want from a boost pedal?
Also i use it as a buffer after my gain stages the obtain the clarity and the highs of my overall pedalboard sound !!!!

Super clean and smoother than the green.
I was expecting good tones from this xotic pedal and was not disappointed. Knowing a major part of the circuitry was the same as a certain famous green pedal sparked my initial interest, but the silky texture of the mids and highs makes it an always on exception. This super clean pedal definitely makes a difference.

The cleans buffer cleans like butter.
You hear the noise when it’s off, you hear the clear tones when it’s on. Easy to install, a bit of current, and play on.
