The Pierce Street Double Boost is a boost pedal for guitar made by Sioux Guitars. It was featured on Pedal of the Day on Sunday, April 2, 2017, which described it as a guitar effects pedal in the boost category1.
A boost pedal takes a guitar's signal and raises it, usually to push an amplifier harder or to lift a solo above the rest of a mix. Boosts sit alongside related drive effects such as overdrive, distortion and fuzz, which shape the tone as well as raising its level; a boost is typically the simplest of the group.
What it does
The pedal's effect type is boost, meaning its job is to increase the level of the guitar signal rather than add a distinct distortion character of its own1. The "double" in its name suggests two boost stages or voices.
Availability and background
Sioux Guitars is a small builder, and the Pierce Street Double Boost came to wider attention through its April 2017 feature on Pedal of the Day, a site that highlights one pedal each day1. No current production status, list price or specifications have been published for it.
Details such as controls, power requirements and bypass type have not been published for this pedal. Anyone considering one would need to ask the maker directly.
