The All-Pedal Jeff Looms signature Devil's Triad Essentials Boost + Drive is a two-in-one pedal from All-Pedal that pairs a boost section with a drive section in a single enclosure. It carries the name of Jeff Loomis, the guitarist it was designed as a signature pedal for, and it sits in the territory covered by boost pedals and overdrive pedals. Guitar Pedal X listed it among its 2024 boost and overdrive releases at $2501.
What it does
The pedal's boost side is controlled by a Post control, a Pre control, and a Boost footswitch, giving the player a footswitchable boost alongside the drive circuit1. That arrangement means the boost can be engaged on its own or stacked with the drive, depending on how the two sections are set.
Guitar Pedal X's Stefan Karlsson, writing in a 2024 buying guide, summed the pedal up this way1:
"Beautiful sounding versatile pedal - great for liquid distortion, but not as high gain as you might think it would be1!"
That verdict is worth noting for players shopping by gain level: the reviewer found the pedal versatile and capable of liquid-style distortion, but described it as not as high gain as its appearance might suggest1. Players after heavier saturation may also want to look at distortion pedals or fuzz pedals alongside it.
