Here's what Free The Tone say about the CC-1B Crunchy Chime Booster
The Crunchy Chime is our new booster unit with an equalizer function. A point worthy of special mention regarding this product is its harmonic components. The boost circuit that generates such rich higher harmonics is the result of our research on the harmonic components of vintage guitars and amplifiers. One of the attractive features of vintage musical equipment is its abundant and brilliant harmonics. We completed this boost circuit after various experiments and tests to learn the secrets of pleasant overtones that are never strident. With this product, you will feel greater
vibrations from your strings and your guitar/bass will sound much livelier.
Every amplifier has different characteristics and there can be a problem such as a booster making the lower register sound dull. Actually, in the development stages, we had difficulties with these ample harmonics sounding muddy on some of the amplifiers we tested with, as unnecessary harmonic components conflicted each other to yield a harsh sound, etc. So we thought it is necessary to be able to adjust the frequency characteristics to match the gear being used and to get closer to an ideal sound. Our specially developed new equalization circuit creates a natural sound as if you were not using an equalizer for making tone adjustments for boost/cut. The characteristics become flat when both the Treble and Bass knobs are set to the 12 o’clock position.
A Mode switch to select frequencies is provided for the equalizer’s BASS control. This works well for the lower register of a 7-string guitar or bass guitar.
Born from a new way of thinking, the “Crunchy Chime,” a booster with equalizer, greatly widens the range of sounds from your guitar or bass and increases the pleasure of playing and sound making.
Features
- The MODE switch selects the boost/cut frequency range of the Bass control.
- The newly designed equalizer circuit creates natural sound.
- The Crunchy Chime can be used as a Mid booster by setting both the Treble and Bass knobs to the cut position.
- The boost circuit for volume control has an adjustable range from -16 dB to +17 dB.
- Free The Tone’s original HTS (Holistic Tonal Solution) circuit is implemented. Unlike conventional buffer circuits, the HTS circuit attains both “high sound quality” and “low noise” by performing impedance conversion while fully bringing out sound characteristics of the guitar/bass. The HTS circuit prevents degradation of guitar/bass timbre even when the effect is turned off.
- There is no need to worry about phase reversal: the output signal is in the same phase as the input signal.

Booster
A booster is an effects pedal used by guitarists to increase the overall level or volume of their signal, often to enhance certain aspects of their tone or to push an amplifier into overdrive.
By amplifying the guitar’s signal, a booster can make solos stand out more prominently in a mix, or drive an amp harder for a more aggressive sound.
Boosters come in various forms, including clean boosters, which simply raise the volume without altering the tone, and overdrive or distortion boosters, which add some level of grit and warmth.
Some booster pedals also feature tone controls to adjust the EQ, allowing players to shape the frequency response and fine-tune their sound.
They are a versatile tool for achieving greater dynamic range and tonal flexibility in both live performances and studio recordings.

Pedal
A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.
This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.
Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
Once you buy one, you can’t stop and then you have to sell them and buy more.
