Sweet-sounding Baxandall-style EQ
Sometimes overlooked by guitarists, an equalizer can be the difference between a good guitar tone and a stellar guitar tone, and the Golden Boy contains a 3-band Baxandall-style EQ section for sweetening your sound. Baxandall-style EQs feature gently sloping curves that provide natural and flattering tone shaping, which is why they're one of the most popular EQ types for studio recording, mixing, and mastering applications. With Golden Boy's EQ section, you can subtly enhance your tone or completely restructure it. Additionally, Golden Boy's EQ can be a lifesaver when you're playing through a bad amp, allowing you to compensate for a less than satisfactory sound.Overdrive Pedal
Four clipping diode presets for ultimate flexibility
For the Golden Boy, Jackson Audio pulled out all the stops to empower guitarists with a massive range of overdrive tones, starting with four selectable clipping diode presets. Indicated by the color on Golden Boy's Drive LED, the clipping modes include a "classic screamer" setting with two symmetrical silicon diodes (green), a chewy asymmetrical clipping mode with three silicon diodes (magenta), a focused and direct 4-diode symmetrical clipping mode (blue), and a vintage British-style amp overdrive with a wide-open sound (amber). Additionally, the Golden Boy presents four boost presets: bright boost, mid boost, tailored boost, and full range. Jackson Audio has made selecting presets on the pedal extremely intuitive, and it's even easier when connected to a MIDI controller.
