How do I know that Boost Guitar Pedals has received my order?
We receive a notification once you have placed your order, so we will pack it up and dispatch it as soon as possible. You will receive an email confirmation of your order detailing items and prices, as well as shipping address and payment method.
Once dispatched, you will receive an email update with your delivery details.
I've ordered several items. Will they all come together?
For logistical reasons items may occasionally arrive in separate packages, although we endeavour to send your entire order together wherever possible. This has no bearing on how much postage you will pay.
What type of packaging do you use?
Shipments from our pedal manufacturers arrive in carboard boxes which we re-use whenever possible to help prevent additional waste and maximise our sustainability. We recognise that bubble-wrap is not environmentally friendly, but by re-using this for customer orders we hope to make the most out of a material that has already been manufactured.
We ensure that all pedals and accessories are well packed so that they arrive with our customers in perfect condition.
Customs fees
You may be required to pay a customs/duty fee when your order arrives in your country if you live outside of the UK. Boost Guitar Pedals can hold no responsibility for paying these fees; you, as the buyer, are responsible for any customs/duty payments.

If a product is delivered in a defective or damaged condition, please contact us immediately with details of your order.

First thing would be to say a high quality power supply is required. I found that with gain and overdrive set to about 2 and the volume set to about 3, the Germanium circuit was beautiful on a telecaster. However if you plug in a Les Paul with the same settings you get volume drop, also the Germanium setting is a bit muddy on the Les Paul. If you switch to the Silicon circuit and gun the gain you can get some great tones with the Les Paul. The Boost setting is great on both guitars, with breakup cutting in far earlier on the Les Paul than the Tele. I have been using the boost mostly to bump up the Tele when switching between guitars so the output at the end of the pedal chain is the same level. The boost also seems to add a little sparkle. With the Tele it is especially easy to play clean but then also get some dirt just with picking dynamics. The Les Paul seems to not clean up as well. Overall this is a versatile, dynamic pedal. What you can get out of it varies according to what you put in. My feeling would be that it’s best for lower-output pickups or single coils. The foot switch is super-loud. I don’t think it’s cheap, I think it’s probably due to most of the box being empty behind it. I've taken half a point off for the loud footswitch and half a point because I haven’t been able to find a nice balanced edge of breakup tone with the Les Paul easily.
