People,

There doesn’t seem to be much info on recent sales I can find in the usual places.

What would be a reasonable price on one of the Guild Brian May treble boost pedals (one of the silver ones)? Presume the condition being very good to excellent.

Thanks.

I think I sold mine for around $200- $250 going back 5 to 8 years ago.
I didn't know how to use it?! Kept it a decade after I sold the guitars.

At the time I was unaware that BM used it to offset the treble roll-off when the three pickups were switched in series.

My lack of knowledge of how BM used the boost is likely why I never bonded with those guitars. The 24" Jaguar scale length neck also was a little off for me but I think the pickup/boost combination was the missing link I unfortunately didn't know how to combine together.

That treble boost would kill when used with a normal pickup! I couldn't understand why anyone would ever want 20-30 dB of boost above 4-5 kHz. Duh!

I assume you have an VOX AC30 ready to pair them together!

Good Luck!
