The Ibanez Booster Mini is a compact clean boost pedal from Ibanez's Mini series, designed to add volume and drive push to a signal chain without altering the fundamental tone, in a space-saving footprint. Built for players wanting a simple, transparent boost to push an amp harder or bring solos forward in a mix, it reflects Ibanez's expansion of their well-regarded pedal lineup into smaller, pedalboard-friendly formats.
The Keeley KTM-B Time Machine Boost is a clean boost pedal from Keeley Electronics designed to provide transparent, high-quality signal level increase without coloring the guitar's natural tone or the amp's character. The JFET-based circuit delivers clean, transparent boost with minimal noise and signal degradation, suited to pushing tube amplifiers into natural breakup or raising solo levels without changing the underlying tone. One of Keeley's foundational utility pedal designs.
