JDM Pedals "OC Boost" - Germanium Boost aka Rangemaster Pedal with 3-way Tone Switch

JDM pedals is now offering customizable Germanium Rangemaster-style boost pedals for $139.

Please note we no longer have the black glass OC44 shown in the video, but the OC71, and OC75 are still available!

The basic feature set is the “boost” control (naturally), and the “Range” control (taken from our JDM Tonemaster “EQ” control) which varies from a chunky, full range boost to a classic treble boost. Hand wired on a hand-cut board using the best quality, high-tolerance components. NO ONE in the entire pedal market is offering this kind of deal on OC-series boost pedals - We want you to get to know JDM Pedals - you will never look back!

The really cool part is you pick your OC series vintage transistor – the finesse of an OC71? The Classic crunch of an OC75? We also have 2N1304, OC139, and MP38a available, just message for details.

After ordering, let us know which transistor you prefer. Email for a full list of what we currently have available.

The pedals are built battery-only, no power supply connection. Batteries will last YEARS in one of these as long as you disconnect the input cable when not in use (this disconnects the battery). We can add an optional power supply jack, but this circuit is the classic Rangemaster-style, and cannot be daisy-chained with other negative-ground pedals, it is positive ground. Trust us, battery is enough, and sounds best. NOTE: NPN transistors such as the OC139 or 2N1304 allow us to build you a pedal that runs on standard +9vDC center negative. Again - these are custom made to order, write to us!

The 3-way top-cut switch (pictured above). This allows you to shave off some of the highest frequencies, which can sound a bit “harsh” or “brittle” depending on your amp/speakers. It’s a 3-position switch with center off. The other two positions we set to “just take off the edge” in one position (can help cut hiss or interference if you experience it at a gig). The second cut “warms up” the tone, just right for brighter American amps (Fender, Boogie…). Alternately, we can set the cut to go deeper, creating a prominent mid boost. You let us know, we customize.
