The Fire Bottle™ Tube Booster enhances the tone of single-coil pickups.
With up to 30dB of gain on tap, this powerful boost pedal can give them a level boost to push the input stage of a tube amp into breakup and overdrive. Perfect for creating bold and glassy, larger-than-life Stevie Ray Vaughan Strat® guitar sounds

This Fire Bottle™ Tube Booster pedal is in a league of its own. This little tube pedal is toneful and responsive. Inside this little pedal there’s a miniaturized Fender® “Blackface” tube amplifier input stage built on a vintage black-plate Sylvania pencil tube. The circuitry responds in exactly the same way as a tube amp. At lower boost settings the Fire Bottle is clean and glassy, but wind up the “BOOST” knob and it pushes a tube amp into producing a beautifully rich (tube) overdrive. It will add warmth and growl to thicken up the tone of single coil pickups without losing definition or clarity. If you’re seeking a tube boost pedal with a rich, warm and soulful tone then the Fire Bottle is the answer!
“Les Paul” and “335” players. The Fire Bottle pedal works with humbucker pickups too. Humbuckers already possess a thick sound which the Fire Bottle will enrich further, creating some high-fat, super-saturated guitar tones.
All tube: 100% analogue vacuum tube signal path operating at real amp plate voltages (300V).
