The Death By Audio Thee Treble is a boutique treble booster and upper-frequency enhancement pedal from the Brooklyn, New York builder, reviving the treble boost circuit from the limited-edition Thee Fuzz Warr Overload. It delivers razor-sharp treble presence and upper-midrange clarity designed to cut through any mix with precision. The circuit emphasizes high-frequency boost in the tradition of classic British treble boosters while incorporating DBA's distinctive approach to circuit design. Suited for classic rock, heavy blues, and experimental players wanting a cutting treble boost with DBA character.
Hornby Skewes Treble Booster is a hand-selected OC75 transistor treble boost with variable frequency selector across 11 distinct steps, hardwire true bypass, and 9V battery power. The linear gain circuit and modified tone setup provide rich, dynamic boost ideal for pairing with already-distorted amps.
