GUPtech released a limited glow in the dark edition of its FrAG Boost pedal, dated 2026-10 on the product page. The maker states the edition uses exactly the same circuit as the original FRAG1.

The FrAG Boost is a boost and preamp pedal. It has Drive, Bright and Volume knobs and an 8-mode selector. GUPtech describes Drive as adding "a bit of crunch and grit," Bright as bringing presence to cut through low-end, and Volume as a boost from zero to full1. The 8-mode selector sets the low-end cut across eight modes, according to the maker1. GUPtech positions it as a preamp boost for high gain pedals or amps1.
