dbo:abstract
  • The Dallas Rangemaster Treble Booster was an effects unit made for guitarists in the 1960s. Its function was two-fold: to increase the signal strength of the guitar going into the amplifier, and to increase tones at the high end of the spectrum (a treble booster). The need for a treble booster arose in the mid-1960s, as British tube amplifiers such as the Vox AC30 or Marshall JTM45 tended to produce a slightly dark, muddy sound when overdriven, particularly when used with humbucking pickups. A pre-amplifier that also boosted treble proved a solution. Additionally, the vintage components in the Rangemaster circuitry could add characteristic distortion and overtones to color the guitar sound, much in the way of the more modern overdrive pedals.

  • Dallas Rangemaster Treble Booster var en effektenhet för gitarr, tillverkad av Dallas Musical Ltd. Dess funktion var att både öka gitarrens signalstyrka i förstärkaren, samt att agera som en diskantförstärkare. Behovet av en diskantförstärkare uppstod i mitten av 1960-talet eftersom brittiska rörförstärkare som Vox AC30 eller Marshall JTM45 tenderade att ge ett lite mörkt, oklart ljud när de överdrivits, särskilt då de användes med humbuckerpickups. En förförstärkare som också ökade diskanten visade sig vara en lösning. Dessutom kan vintage-komponenterna i Rangemaster-kretsen lägga till karakteristisk distorsion och övertoner för att färga gitarrljudet. (sv)
