- BBE Boosta Grande Pedal
The all-analog Boosta Grande, a Guitar Player Editor’s Pick, is back in a new compact chassis to conserve space on your pedal board.
A clean boost pedal does nothing but pile on gain, right? Well, some do, but that doesn’t create the experience players want. You see, added gain will push the amp’s front end tubes harder, creating more of the amp’s own harmonics, but that alone will make the amp seem too bright, sacrificing the tonal balance in the process.
You see, we call Boosta Grande a “transparent clean boost” because it doesn’t change the tonal balance of the amp, even with Boosta’s max gain of +20dB slamming those tubes. To achieve a transparent boost experience, Boosta Grande mildly rolls off some top end starting at about 1kHz so that when the amp’s front end is driven harder with gain, the additional upper harmonics generated by the tubes aren’t excessive.
Boosta Grande’s mission to preserve amp amp’s tonal balance ends with careful post-EQ, but it starts with preserving the tone of your guitar. Boosta Grande’s 1meg Ohm input is about the same as the front end of a good Marshall or other premium tube amp, welcoming your guitar’s signal with wide-open arms, not loading down your pickups. In the middle of things, you can count on Boosta’s 1% metal-film resistors for consistent tone and a rugged circuit board for tour-proven reliability. When the Boosta isn’t engaged, a properly engineered true hardwire bypass means signal passes entirely around the circuit, from input jack to output jack without a hint of loading.
When a transparent boost is the experience you’re after, get a Boosta Grande and let your amp’s tubes sing their song with more gusto.

Very good review. This sounds like a good pedal for those who want a "transparent" boost.
one of the best pedals i used
Yes, that is a tone! Haha! Great demo, as usual, mate!
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow i had this pedal! Great pedal and great demo!! I got rid of it because the size!!
Really nice boost, seems to stay on the nice side of break up. Doesn't push the amp into that harsh place some boosts do.
I was about to comment about the name meaning almost “big shit” in Portuguese but the content creator nailed it haha!
In Portuguese it translates to Big $h&t. 😎
The Boosta Grande! It's THE shit! ;oP Gives a kick in the balls for sure!
Hey Shane! You wouldn't wanna offload your Tone City Sweet Cream pedal by any chance would ya?
I am pretty sure it's sold already mate, but I can check. Could you please email me at intheblues at outlook dot com and I'll let you know if I have it. Cheers.
I'm getting this pedal tomorrow :D and I'm hispanic xd
Very subtle
Tradutions appart I would like to know your feelings about another pedal from BBE, the sonic stomp maximizer.
I haven't used it personally but it's supposed to be pretty cool. They used to use that basic idea in studio's a lot to give recordings more zing. :) I'm sure it would do the same thing for electric guitar.
Hi there, I have a BBE Sonic Maximizer on my board and I haven't turned it off in about eight years. It makes every amp I own sound great (Fender Twin, Fender Bassman, Marshall Silver Jubilee). It sits at the end of my chain and I set both knobs to around 11 o'clock. It's a subtle tone change, however it's as if I pulled a blanket off of my amps. A total secret weapon!
I love the Sonic stop! Its like talking a blanket off your amp. I've got several amps and it make each one sound better. Everyone needs one. Even if you have the world's best amp but youve dialed in a tone you like but want it now clear. Just got the Sonic stomp and add more bass, less, now treble or less and it keeps whatever tone you had
It’s a great pedal! Always on!
... that's why we are very fortunate that cows/bulls do not fly...:)) Nice pedal - and very pratical the "one knob" side!!!
BIG TUURD!!!!!!!!! yep... but cool pedal.
Esse nome assusta 😂😂😂
haha boosta grande in portuguese means "big shit" haha nice demo as usual
hahaha i comment befeore i saw the video, haha
:-D hehe
Yep. "Big Tuurd" lol
BIG SHIIT!!!!!!!! kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
"boosta" is not "bosta"
Im from Brazil and never thoght this meaning for boosta but makes sense hahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha. Maybe thats the reason why they used this color LOL
Haha! That’s true!
How's it big shit in spanish?
