Cesar Diaz Texas Ranger Treble Boost ~ Cool

Post by goofyfoot »

(From the Cesar Diaz musical products website)....."Based on the DALLAS RANGEMASTER treble booster, as used by Clapton in the Bluesbreakers, Rory Gallagher, Brian May and Tony Iommi. This booster adds treble and gain, and Cesar has added a HI/MID/LO switch to choose an EQ setting which the original pedal did not have. This pedal has "Absolute Bypass".™

Sometimes you need to change the lineup. I'd been hooking up my JangleBox to the AC-15 TBR (with a Weber Blue Dog 12) of late. Decided to bring out my Cesar Diaz Texas Ranger Treble Boost and insert it into the lineup. Whew, I'd forgotten how it worked seamlessly with my tube amps. I dig the tonal range it achieves by adjusting the chicken-head tone control knob. In case you don't know about Cesar, he worked with SRV, Dylan, Clapton, and Neil, among others and earned the monicker, "The Amp Doctor." Read more about the late, great Cesar Diaz here:

Anyone else using a Diaz pedal?

Peace, out.....Goofyfoot
