Xotic

Xotic Effects is a highly influential Japanese/American boutique company, celebrated for creating some of the most popular and versatile low-gain overdrive and boost pedals on the market. Xotic's philosophy centres on transparency, ensuring their effects preserve the guitar's natural tone and enhance the response of the valve amplifier. Their flagship product is the legendary Xotic EP Booster, a simple, single-knob boost pedal that emulates the coveted preamp section of the vintage Echoplex tape delay, adding sparkle, thickness, and dynamic feel. Other highly sought-after pedals include the Xotic SL Drive (a Marshall Super Lead-in-a-box) and the hyper-flexible BB Preamp, known for its warm, transparent overdrive and extensive EQ controls. Xotic also builds high-end, custom-shop quality Xotic XTC and XS electric guitars, offering exceptional playability and feel. A Xotic EP Booster or BB Preamp is an essential utility pedal for professional musicians who demand transparent drive, reliable boost, and supreme tonal clarity.
