Villex Passive Mid-range Booster
GMB/B booster is for internal installation and gives guitar guitar and bass players the flexibility of choosing the location and type of switch which is the best for the guitar. A push-pull switch can be used to keep the guitar appearance intact.
Active-like boost with no battery
For decades guitar players faced a difficult choice. Active mid-range boosters give more control over the tone of the guitar, but come at the price of battery installation. Thanks to Villex passive booster technology, the choice is no longer difficult. Villex passive rotary tone booster works through maximizing pickup output by recovering energy which is otherwise lost. The Villex boosters give all the benefits of active boosters with no disadvantages of added noise, battery installation and replacement.
Features
Boost levels
Villex boosters provide up to 7 db true boost. Boost levels may differ depending on pickups on the guitar and amplifier used. As any passive circuit, Villex boosters require high impedance input with impedance = 1Mohm.
Gain equalization for multiple pickups
Villex boosters automatically raise gain levels for two pickup selector positions, such as positions 2 and 4 on a Stratocaster, to make them level with one pickup selector positions. This improves the sound of the positions 2 and 4, making them sound as loud as positions 1, 3 and 5. Since positions 2 and 4 have humbucking properties, they can be used in a high electromagnetic hum environment.
