Jellyfish Electronics Blinding Voip Boost

The Blinding Voip Boost is a boost pedal from Jellyfish Electronics, a small builder whose pedals are hand-wired and hand-painted. As a boost, its job is simple: it pushes the guitar's signal harder, and it adds a Tone and a Mids knob on top of the usual Volume, so the boosted sound can be shaped rather than just made louder. Pedal of the Day's reviewer, Mike B, described it as "a great boost pedal with plenty of volume, plus a killer EQ section as well"¹.

What it does

The pedal boosts the guitar's signal, and Mike B noted that "the Blinding Voip does possess that ever-popular option of actually BOOSTING your guitar's signal"¹. Where many boost pedals offer only a level control, the Blinding Voip adds equalization, which puts it closer in spirit to a dedicated EQ pedal crossed with a clean boost. The maker's approach, as the reviewer described it, is a boost that can "beef up the lows and cut the highs" as needed¹.

Controls

The Tone knob was described as making the pedal "an easy-to-dial-in tone machine"¹, and the Mids knob extends that shaping into the middle frequencies, the range that decides how a boosted signal sits in a band mix.

Construction and bypass

The Blinding Voip is true bypass, so the pedal is out of the signal path entirely when switched off, and it is hand-wired. The enclosure is hand-painted red, which is typical of small-batch builders where each unit's finish is applied by hand¹.

What reviewers said

Pedal of the Day's verdict was positive. Mike B summed it up:

He called it "a refreshing boost with more meat and nice equalization options," the "more meat" pointing to the extra low-end control that separates it from a bare volume-boost¹. A later Pedal of the Day review of the company's Girthquake overdrive referred back to the Blinding VOIP! Boost by name, confirming it as part of the builder's range².
