Fulltone CS Ranger is an expertly build pedal from the Fulltone Custom Shop. It is based on a vintage Dallas Rangmaster Treble Booster.
The Dallas Rangemaster was a germanium transistor-powered guitar effect made in the mid-60s which was relied upon heavily by Brian May, Tony Iommi, Rory Gallagher, and many others to achieve their signature sounds. It was marketed as a ‘treble booster’, when it actually boosted the midrange and treble frequencies, at the same time imparting an incredible harmonically-laden distortion while also driving the tube amplifier to distort more.
This Ranger allows you to drive hard and eliminate the muddy midrange so often found in overdrive sounds. The pedal has a rotary mode switch with which you can switch between various frequency modes that the ranger offers. You can choose full range, lo-mids, mids, rangemaster 1, rangemaster 2 and highest. This ranger contains a NOS military germanium transistor that was tested for noise, leakage, and tonal qualities. The pedal is 100% hand-built in California, USA.
