Used Darkglass Harmonic Booster

Used Darkglass Harmonic Booster

Palen Music Center is thrilled to offer the Darkglass Harmonic Booster, a masterful revival of the company's very first pedal design. Originally conceived as the foundational gain and filter stages for their legendary overdrive technology, this clean bass preamplifier gives you absolute control over the harmonics and filtering crucial to a modern bass tone. It provides massive clean headroom and ultra-low noise performance, ensuring your instrument retains its fundamental punch, low-end integrity, and definition.

Whether you are trying to cut through a dense live mix or lay down pristine studio tracks, the Harmonic Booster enhances your attack and presence with remarkable clarity. Its comprehensive 3-band active EQ features a highly flexible semi-parametric Mid control, allowing you to sculpt everything from thick, warm lows to a percussive, aggressive midrange. The pedal's secret weapon is the unique Character knob, which lets you seamlessly blend in the perfect amount of Darkglass's proprietary tone-shaping circuitry or dial it completely back for a flat frequency response.

Designed to be the ultimate tone sweetener, the Harmonic Booster serves as an incredible "always-on" pedal for any bassist. Furthermore, it was specifically engineered to perfectly complement other Darkglass distortion circuits, pushing them into tighter, more articulate territory. When you need to breathe new life into your bass rig, the Harmonic Booster delivers unparalleled tone-shaping flexibility.
