Product information "British Pedal Company Vintage Series Dallas Rangemaster Varit... B-Ware Treble Booster"
In the mid-60s, music became louder and rockier - distorted guitar sounds were suddenly in demand. The tube amps of the time had to be cranked all the way up to get the coveted overdrive sound. Resourceful guitarists came up with the idea of boosting tube amps with fuzz boxes or boosters. The holy grail among boosters was the Dallas Arbiter Range Master - a primitive treble booster with just one OC44 Germanium transistor and a handful of other components in a small desktop housing. No footswitch - the booster is activated via a slide switch, no output socket - a permanently connected jack cable provides the connection to the amplifier. The Rangemaster delivers a magical sound in conjunction with tube amps - if the volume pot of the guitar is turned down, the booster delivers a crystal-clear clean sound with plenty of sparkle at the top end; if the volume pot is turned up fully, the amp is driven into saturation and delivers a rich distortion sound with a characteristic mid-range boosst - and the whole thing is infinitely variable! Well-known Range Master users include Rory Gallagher, Tony Iommi, Brian May, Ritchie Blackmore and many others. The British Pedal Co. has resurrected the legendary Dallas Range Master Treble Booster from 1965 as an authentic replica - historically correct look and the legendary sound.

The British Pedal Company brings together a team of designers and developers with over 60 years of experience in the music industry. Originally, the team developed, designed and created pedals for the JMI brand in the early 2000s and were very successful. In 2011 they parted ways with JMI and in 2014 launched their own range under the name British Pedal Company. Today British Pedal Company is able to offer a far better product, thanks to the many hours of research devoted to improving production and optimising transistor manufacturing. All transistors are produced to in-house specifications to ensure higher reliability and lower noise. British Pedal Company pedals are played, among others, by Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Dan Auerbach (The Black Keys) and Gary Moore.
