Sinobas Amplification Unveils the BT-1 Boost Pedal

Sinobas Amplification produces a healthy line of bass cabinets and cables, but now they’re also getting into the world of pedals. Their first stompbox offering is the Boost BT-1, a “mean and clean” boost designed for the bass guitar.
“Designed around an NPN silicon transistor, our BT-1 gives you up to 23dB of clean gain for your sound,” the company writes. “With two logarithmic potentiometers, you can adjust how much signal goes through the transistor (EFFECT) and your overall mix presence (VOLUME).”
The BT-1 runs on a standard 9VDC power supply and features true bypass switching. It’s available for order now with a pre-sale price of $75 and a retail price of $125.
