here at Just Pedals we love this Tech 21 Boost Distortion Metallic – Analog Distortion with Boost.
The combination of a Distortionand a boost is a simple idea but a good one. The Tech 21 Boost Distortion allows you to quickly and easily push up the volume of your guitat while adding in that essential distortion … when you want to grab the crowds attention with a blazing solo this pedal might be just what you’re after.
Designed and built from the ground up utilizing the best individually-selected, hand-biased discreet components, each unit delivers optimized performance with studio-quiet operation. Alongside a wealth of hot driven tones, there is a powerful boost function that delivers up to an incredible 21dB of clean boost, which can be used independently from the effect.
It is a true post-boost, punching up the tone you dialed in, not smothering it in unwanted distortion. From the high-impedance input to the sweepable low-pass filter in the tone control, your tone will be open and controllable in every setting.
Here’s what Tech 21 have to say about this pedal
Hey, remember the ‘80s? A lot of bad clothes but some way-cool, aggressive distortions. Tight, muscular grind with buzz-saw harmonics never went out of fashion and the Boost Distortion delivers that fast punchy tone. It features its own unique SAG control that adds an expressive, tube-like response to every pick stroke.
We have new and used Tech 21 musical equipment available on our website for fast direct delivery from sellers across the UK & Europe.
Tech 21 – Analog Tone, Digital Versatility
Tech 21 is an industry leader in analogue amp emulation, known for its legendary SansAmp series. Since the late ‘80s, their pedals have provided musicians with rich, tube-like tones without the need for an amp.
From the iconic SansAmp Bass Driver DI to the versatile Fly Rig series, Tech 21’s pedals deliver studio-quality sound with rugged, gig-ready reliability. Whether on stage or in the studio, their analogue circuitry ensures warm, responsive tones for guitarists and bassists alike.
A boost pedal is used to increase the overall volume or gain of an instrument’s signal, typically without adding distortion or altering the tone drastically. It’s commonly used to push the amp into overdrive, making solos stand out or increasing the power of the signal for a more pronounced sound. Boost pedals can also be used to emphasise specific frequencies, helping the instrument cut through the mix during performances.
There are different types of boost pedals, such as clean boost and colored boost. Clean boost preserves the natural tone of the instrument while increasing the volume, whereas colored boost can alter the sound slightly, adding warmth, presence, or a subtle tonal shift. Popular boost pedals include models from Xotic, Electro-Harmonix, and TC Electronic, each offering different features like EQ controls, low noise, and transparency, allowing players to tailor their boost to fit their unique playing style.
Distortion is a type of guitar effect that alters the sound by adding sustain, harmonic richness, and a gritty or aggressive character. It clips the audio signal, creating a more saturated and powerful tone. Distortion is commonly used in rock, metal, and punk music, offering everything from warm, crunchy overdrive to heavily saturated, high-gain chaos. Unlike overdrive, which mimics the natural breakup of a tube amp, distortion produces a more intense, compressed, and processed sound. Popular distortion pedals include the Boss DS-1, ProCo Rat, and MXR Distortion+.
