A treble booster voiced after the '60s British boost that fed AC30s, with a three-way switch and a midrange control.
Watch
Mundo Juillerat's clip on the Brighton Treble Booster is aimed at Brian May's tone, which is the classic use for this kind of circuit.
Why it matters
It is a single-purpose boost rather than an overdrive: the circuit is voiced to push an amp that is already breaking up, and the three-way switch reshapes the top-end attack. The midrange knob sweeps from scooped fuzz to mid-forward, so the pedal covers the classic boost sound and thicker fuzz-adjacent settings. Suhr announced it at NAMM 2026.
Note
Suhr's NAMM 2026 treble booster, voiced after the classic '60s British boost that fed AC30s. A three-way switch reshapes the top-end attack and a midrange knob moves between scooped and mid-forward voicings.
