A booster pedal is not just used to increase the volume when it's time for a solo! A good booster can also solve a lot of problems in the modern guitarist's rig, because today's pedalboards have on average 8 or more pedals, with each of those pedals requiring: a guitar cable--->jack--->more cables--->footswitch--->switching--->footswitch again--->jack--->more cables--> and on to the next pedal. It's a miracle that there is any signal left at all after everything we do with our signal. Have you ever played through a 10-foot guitar cable directly into a large tube amp? The feeling, the dynamics, the fat sound... it really makes you want to play! Then you plug in your overloaded pedalboard and suddenly the sound is tiny, thin, with attenuated bass, sticky mids, and scratchy, thin highs. This.
