Bsm / RPA Special Booster / 2010's / Effect

Not everybody owns such a heavily hot-rodded amp, and if so, for sure it will not have the correct highpass cutoff frequency ! So BSM had the idea, to not only rebuild the AIWA preamp stage, but to also integrate the important highpass function with the original cutoff frequency. The BSM RPA (Ritchies Pre Amp) emulates both typical soundshaping functions in only one stompbox - another BSM first ! The RPA is equipped with a gain control, to dial in the best possible balance for the use with different amps and pickups. The EQ control allows a tonal fine tuning for the use of the RPA with different pickups, amps and speakers for an optimum in versatility. Depending on the pickups, the sweet spot of the EQ control is located between 11:00 and 01:00 o´ clock. Another highlight of the RPA was more or less created by accident: with the gain pot fully opened, and the EQ control completely closed, you receive the authentical Blackmore sound from the great "Machine Head" album or Ritchie Blackmore´s "Rainbow".   As a soulmate for the RPA, you can use any mild sounding amp with a good master control function. Plug it in front of the CLEAN or CRUNCH channel, but don´t use the high-gain or distortion channel ! Because of the EQ control, you can use all kinds of pickups, from the brilliant sounding low-gain Fender Custom Shop 69´ (aka "Abigail Ybarra" pickups) up to the thundering Seymour Duncan "Quarterpounds".   The RPA Special Booster is inserted between guitar and amplifier, not into the FX loop. The magical tone is achieved by the interaction between guitar pickup, booster and amplifier. The unit is powered by a 9V battery with a current consumption of approx. 350 uA. You can also power the unit, using the external "Boss style" (2.1mm - tip negative) DC jack, the internal battery will shut off automatically then. The average output level is 10dBm, the maximum output voltage when the strings are struck really hard is 6V max. Because of the external DC jack, you can power the RPA with 9, as well as with 18 volts for more headroom.   Note: The negative pole of the battery is ground !
