Boost Based on a Classic Preamp

The Xotic EP Booster pedal for electric guitar is based on the preamp stage of the classic EP-3 echo effects processor. Legendary guitarists used that preamp to craft their studio tones, including Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen, and Eric Johnson. The EP Booster pedal delivers up to 20dB of boost that will add an undeniably rich character to your guitar tone. Internal Dip switches allow you to fine-tune the boost frequencies and EQ settings. To hit your amp harder while also adding some character to your tone, Sweetwater can highly recommend the Xotic EP Booster pedal.

Xotic: Boutique pedals, preamps, and more

Xotic was born in a small garage in Southern California in 1996 and quickly became known for high-quality, boutique bass guitars and bass preamps. These days, they've expanded the pedal line, crafting stompboxes that are played by some of the finest guitarists in the business. Their acclaimed AC Booster, RC Booster, and BB Preamp pedals remain some of their most popular pedals.

Just got this thing but I will say my first impression is that it sounds fantastic. TBD but it could be the best sounding pedal in my rig. If anyone wants a transparent boost that gives some more richness to your natural tone, this seems like a good one.

This pedal is the best thing after the internet was invented!...

I wanted to look for preamp warm tone base for my pedalboards, for I can not remember how long of research and looking I decided to pull the plug on the Ep as a base for mt studio pedal board system that has more than 20 pedals, an infinite array of textures colors, tones and possibilities. You always have to have a great foundation, so I went ahead and had the Ep is that base and OMG!!!! not only my studio system sounds simply amazing!!, but my touring/Roas pedalboard and B board as well have it installed. The EP booster is simply amazing!!

Perfect boost

Used to have one of these a long time ago. So when I needed to add a little boost, I knew where to go. This is one of the best booster pedals you can buy.

The always on pedal

I have had multiple EP pedals on multiple boards. It's one of the always on pedals and for good reason. Turns your tone in to glorious deliciousness.
