The Iommic Boost DIY Project is a do-it-yourself build from Mask Audio Electronics. Rather than a finished pedal, it is a project: the player assembles it themselves. The maker describes the circuit as a "Classic treble booster in a new compact form"1, so the finished unit is a treble booster, a type of boost that pushes the treble end of the signal. Boost pedals of this kind are often used to push an amp or another pedal harder, and you can read more about the type on the Boost Pedals page.
What it does
A treble booster is one of the oldest boost designs: it lifts the high frequencies and leaves the rest behind, which is why players have long used it in front of a cranked amp to add bite and drive. Mask Audio Electronics presents the Iommic as that classic circuit, packaged in a compact form and sold as a project to build rather than a pedal to buy finished1.
The listed price is £4.00 GBP, given by the maker in pounds sterling1. Because it is a DIY project, the price covers the project itself and not a completed, housed pedal; the maker's product page is the place where the project is sold1.
This is a DIY project, not an assembled pedal. The price is listed in pounds sterling (£4.00 GBP) by the maker1.
