The Blammo! Utility Boost rethinks simple boost pedals by packing two distinct circuits into one compact enclosure: a Cocked Wah Boost with a sweepable mid-focus via Frequency knob (heel-toe wah simulation) and a Flat Linear Boost delivering an op-amp-driven clean lift with internal trim pot for gain matching
Other features include:
- Klon-Derived Buffer: Always-on option (even in bypass) for signal integrity in long chains
- Shared Volume Control: Unified output level for both channels
- No-Click Switching: Relay-based footswitches (CHANNEL selects boost type, ON/OFF engages effect)
- Hybrid Construction: SMD/through-hole design with Panasonic capacitors for cost-effective durability
While minimalist in appearance, this pedal offers studio-grade flexibility—from transparent level boosts to vintage-style mid pushes—without complicating the interface. The buffered bypass alone makes it a pedalboard workhorse, especially for players combating tone loss in complex setups.
