Active Booster Help

[mattdowney]

i just wired a active booster from guitarfetish.com into my guitar. i did all the wiring correctly and have went over al lthe conections with a multimeter for continuity. it still isnt working. the booster has 5 positions, bypass, full bottomed boost, upper mid boost, mid/trebal boost and big overdrive/mid boost. when i am in the first position it is fine, my normal guitars sound. when i switch it up to the second position there is the tinyest bit more bass, but almost no difference, you really have to listen for it. the 3rd and 4th positions are no different from the second and the 5th position has a tiny tiny boost in volume, but you cant notice it unless you listen for it. i am sure i did everything correctly. does anyone have any ideas of whats wrong? it has to have more boost then that. has anyone used one of these before? did it work well?

thanks, matt

Have you tried it on your amp's clean channel - I've noted that a lot of active tone controls have very little effect if the amp is severely distorted with a deep midrange cut. Other than that, I'd have to see the wiring.

i have tried it on my amps clean channel, and its the same. i had a guitar tech look over my wiring this afternoon and he says everything is fine. maybe the booster is very very subtle? has anyone used any boosters from guitar frenzy?
