Purple Peaker -- BEGINNER

Description
Purple Peaker frequency booster

Another of Dan Armstrong's boxes.

The purple peaker can add two peaks in the frequency response, one boosting the low frequencies and the other in the high frequencies.

The Low peak is at 400Hz giving a nice fat bottom. The High peak is at 5.3KHz giving presence and sparkle to the tone.

Use SPST switches for each (LOW/HIGH) peak and be able to switch on either one of them or both. It's like having 3 ADDITIONAL different guitars!!

The unit gives a slight boost compared to bypass, so a volume control at the output is also useful (100k-Log).

Visit homewrecker's Purple Peaker page for more info.
