The Greer Amps Sonic Boom is a clean boost pedal from Athens, Georgia boutique maker Greer Amplification, providing transparent output gain for pushing tube amplifier front ends or increasing solo volume without adding significant tonal coloring. The Sonic Boom name implies a dramatic volume enhancement with the clean, transparent clarity of a sonic boom rather than tonal warmth or coloring. Greer builds handmade boutique effects in Athens, GA, and the Sonic Boom is their clean boost offering for players who need reliable, premium boost capability.
The J. Rockett Audio Designs Steampunk is a clean boost and buffer pedal designed to provide transparent signal amplification and impedance management without tonal coloring. It delivers clean, pristine signal boost for level-matching, driving tube amplifiers into natural saturation, or conditioning the signal for optimal performance through long cable runs and complex pedal chains. The buffer section maintains signal integrity and high-frequency content across the signal chain. Built in Tennessee with premium components in J. Rockett's American boutique tradition.
