"A Power Boost & Hiwatt DR103 in a pedal? Hmm…

Welcome to the show and welcome to Effector Du Jour!

Dan and I have never been huge fans of amp-in-a-box pedals, but Crazy Tube Circuits from Greece has a unique approach to the concept that has really impressed us to date. Here then is a mighty challenge: the Hi Power vs the real thing! And while there is a bit of Gilmour flavour here, I tried to not make it all about that. Erm, also, I didn’t do much in the way of low-gain sounds today. The Hi Power can do those too, but I just got carried away on the crunchies!

Enjoy!
