New boost

A few days ago, I sold off one of my acoustic guitars in preparation for the upcoming unemployment days. It's insufficient to see things through but it's better than no money at all. There was an unexpected windfall along the way so I managed to get the BOSS BP-1w. These days, I'm more interested in acquiring (affordable) gear to beef up my tone so this, to me, was a good buy especially when I get to use accumulated Swee Lee membership points for discounts. Full appraisal soon.

Ibanez 2023 (5): Penta!

Really, this was least expected. Ibanez has a new pedal for 2023, the Pentatone. The fact that it's labelled as a preamp got some people confused. The Pentatone can be applied as a stand alone distortion / drive unit as well. It has features that I like - EQ, noise gate & of course pre-boost (most prob my favourite feature here). As if these aren't enough, there's a post-boost & bright switch as well. Again, is this a unique offering in the market? Definitely not. The Tone Workstation (Keeley), Palladium (Seymour Duncan) & Theta (ISP) are some examples which function like the Pentatone but aren't really referred to as a preamp. Here's a quick take which I feel is a very good presentation of what this pedal is all about:
