Please note, shipping to USA currently incurs a tariff cost. This can be paid up front or to the local authority upon arrival in the USA. In practice, I have found that shipments without pre-paid tariff charges get returned to sender. Tariff costs to the USA will be calculated after purchase and invoiced separately if required.
The Element 32 (based on the Dallas Rangemaster) is a single transistor, germanium treble booster used to great effect by many of the guitar legends of the 60’s and 70’s, such as Brian May, Eric Clapton and Rory Gallagher. The magic comes from the germanium transistor’s bias at near cut-off, and its interaction with the first stage of a valve amp. It wants to be loud, so this is not a pedal ideally suited to bedroom volumes and/or transistor amps.
It features a “Boost” pot and a 3-way tone switch (not included in “Micro” version) and is built onto a custom-designed PCB with a bias trim pot to account for temperature variation. The price varies depending on the specific transistor, with the lower end being a NOS Soviet device, through black glass Mullard transistors (OC44/OC45) and at the hight end, the ultra-rare yellow jacket Mullard OC44. These most sought-after transistors only come into stock occasionally, so please check in advance.
