Seymour Duncan has re-introduced its Pickup Booster pedal (Ver 2) with much more gain, as claimed, via the push-pull gain knob. That's a fantastic option IMO because some of us just wants a dirt voicing to kick in with our boosters. Most of the time, we simply need more of what we have & the booster should remain clean so Duncan now offer both options. I'm gonna leave you with the demo clip by the manufacturer & after watching it if you think you have that much gain on tap- not quite. The PB will accentuate what you have, meaning, the drive responses are largely dependent on your pedals or amps, it's not gonna come from the pedal per se (I own the Ver 1). A good booster unit should remain in its booster territory, not double up as a drive/ distortion source.
