Mythos Pedals Cestus | Treble Booster

The Cestus started life as a simple clean boost pedal but was discontinued some time ago. When Mythos Pedals reworked the SusMaryOsep! for RJ Ronquillo the first thing he requested was a Treble Booster. After that circuit was completed they knew they had to re-release the Cestus as that treble booster!

The Cestus is back now in Treble Booster form. Pulled from the V2 SusMaryOsep! this silicon treble booster features a NOS Mil Spec 2N2222A Transistor that we measure to make sure you have the best tone and lowest noise possible.

With it's 3 way voicing toggle on the face this new Cestus can do classic treble boosted sounds, more mid-forward honky sounds, or super thick sounds. We've ditched the internal gain control but you still retail the internal bias control.

This new version of the Cestus uses a silicon Mil Spec NOS 2N2222A transistor in lieu of a germanium transistor. This gives Mythos the inventory necessary to produce these pedals consistently. In switching to silicon you have a Treble Boost that's got a unique grit and hair. It works well even on slightly cleaner guitar amps, which was a surprise. 

The switch on the face of the Cestus is a 3-Way voice toggle. This takes your tone from classic/thin boost tones to more mid-foward tones and to bass heavy tones. This handy toggle allows you to match the voicing with your setup or allows you to cover a wider range of tones. With the right amp or dirt pedal after the Cestus you will be able to run the gamut of lead and rhythm tones. 

The SET control sets your overall output. It's wide range of output lets you go from just a slight re-voicing of your signal to amp crushing power when dimed. The artwork is inspired by the original amp top boxes that inspired this unit.
