Xotic EP booster? another fishyfinger eyecandy!

Its just a simple, single Jfet preamp ...WTF !!

"Audio engineering suffers from misinformation, disinformation, and downright lying more than most fields of endeavour."
 
In audio engineering there is no implication on mistakes as a builder has to balance his ear, feel and electronic theory to achieve his intention.

If it's a mistake it won’t work (function as intended) ...period.

The fuzz face may be considered a mistake then...since it’s a distorting pre-amp which should not, but done so on purpose.

It's a sorry state .... this gear addiction phenomena!!
 
heh, geetarers hear tone in reading words while some make music by listening to sound. Not all of course, but some, some, same, same, but different.
 
*shrugs*

Who knows? It was cool enough for some great guitarists to rely on it for their tone... maybe it works, even though its really that "simple"?

Over time, I've learnt to not bother about what's inside and bother about the music/sounds instead.
