Turn Your Humbuckers into a High-Output Powerhouse.

Unlock the hidden ceiling of your guitar’s performance. The Boffin FX 20dB Onboard Push-Pull Booster (2025 Edition) is a premium MOSFET-based preamp that fits directly into your guitar's control cavity. Designed specifically for humbucker-equipped guitars, this 500K version preserves the full frequency response of your pickups while giving you a massive +20dB of gain on demand.

Whether you're looking to push a tube amp into organic clipping or simply need to jump to the front of a heavy mix for a solo, this "stealth" mod does it all—no floor pedals required.

Why the Boffin FX 500K Booster?

  • The "Solo Switch": Replace your standard volume pot with our high-quality Alpha Push-Pull. Keep it pushed for your standard rhythm tone; pull it for an instant, massive volume leap.
  • Tailored for Humbuckers: The 500K resistance ensures your high-end remains open and aggressive, preventing the "dark" or muffled sound often caused by lower-value pots.
  • Onboard Gain Calibration: Use the internal trimpot to dial in your "sweet spot." Set it for a subtle 3dB lift or a full-throttle 20dB blast.
  • Treble Bleed Ready: Our 2025 redesign features dedicated soldering pads, making it easier than ever to install a treble bleed circuit and keep your tone crisp at lower volumes.

Easy DIY Installation

We know you’d rather be playing than soldering. Our minimal-solder design features a pre-wired output harness to streamline your upgrade.

  • Integrated Power Switching: The included TRS (Stereo) Jack acts as your power switch—the 9V battery only engages when your cable is plugged in.
  • Compact Footprint: Engineered to fit into tight "Les Paul" style control cavities without routing.
