Fulltone Custom Shop Ranger | Treble Booster

The Dallas Rangemaster was a germanium transistor-powered pedal made in the mid 1960s that was heavily used by Brian May, Tony Iommi, Rory Gallagher and many others to achieve their signature sounds.  Although sold as a treble-booster, it actually boosed the mids as well, imparting an incredibly harmonic-laden distortion and pushing valve amps to further distort.  Nowadays they sell for thousands, so it's great that Fulltone have brought it back to life with 5-extra frequency rangers, true-bypass and in a super-compact enclosure.  Michael Fuller also devised a way to allow the pedal to remain PNP (positive ground) whilst still being powered by a standard NPN (negative ground) power supply.  The Fulltone Ranger contains NOS military germanium transistors culled from Michael's own stash and tested for noise, leakage and tonal qualities by himself.  100% hand-built in California.  Wow!
