Just for clarification/FYI,  Is this http://www.tonefactor.com/proddetail.php?prod=Eleven  The Eleven booster that appears in Dragonfly's layouts?

...nope...i was unaware that brad started making a booster and decided to call it "eleven"...mines named after the spinal tap "moment" (this one goes to eleven), and evidently "pre-dates" brads pedal by a year or two....

oh well...i like brad...hes a good guy...im sure he was unaware...though i did send a bunch of prototypes to him about 1 1/2 years ago, one of which was coincidentally called "eleven" ....knowing him, it was just a subconcious thing....

Will this booster just boost the signal or
is it more of a treble booster? Will it add grit like a
Rangemaster does? I am basically just looking for a boost
that will only give me more volume and not change the rest of
my sound.

...it'll add a "bit" of sparkle, due to being a fairly high impedence....definitely a nice circuit though...its a LOT cleaner than a rangemaster style boost....

generally speaking, an opamp based booster is going to be "most true" to the original sound, though there are certainly exceptions....the AMZ mosfet boost is a nice transparent boost....

I guess that's a reasonable thing to happen.  Spinal tap is a classic.

Well my interest was peaked either way so a may perf  up your "eleven" soon.
