I would highly recommend the MI Audio/Effects Boost N' Buff.  I believe Spankyrigor has them in stock for a little over 5K.  While I believe that everyone has different tone preference, I will recommend the BnB because it's the only buffered boost pedal that I like and use compared to other equally popular clean booster pedals.   :razz:

Visual Sound Truetone Boost.  :-)

I had one before.. Buffer is as good as it gets from visual sound, it's really nice clean booster as well.

Have you tried the ARC Klone v2? It's a really good clean boost. Buffered din.  :-)

I use a simple Boss GE-7.
It works great for me, plus I can shape my guitar sound as I wish.

There is no tone. There is only music.

Yes bro, it's buffered. You can read on Visual Sound's buffer, they're really good.

VS Visual Volume...on active mode you can set the the pedal to act as a clean boost also... vs buffer will not change your guitas tone. I set the unity at half(LED indicator) then the other half travel of the peeal will function as a boost=) Now you have an volume pedal, a beautiful buffer, stereo enabled and a clean boost....Im selling one...hehehe

thats what i do.

some people will say it will colour your sound, pero para sa akin it makes my sound better, because it buffers my signal before the g-system.

personal preference.
