Hello,
Does anyone has a pic of the original late sixties Orange Treble & Bass Boost?.... used by David Gilmour and Wishbone Ash...
BSM offers now an excact clone called OR Treble & Bass Boost.

As far as I know Orange has never made a treble boost..?

More to the point, it was probably Orange re-badged. You may as well just buy a different one that you like.

That's a very interesting article. Makes me wonder what catalog that picture is from though. I have the 1971 and 1973 catalogs and there are no pedals in it. The font and the way the page layout is done looks like it should be later 70's I would think. If Gilmour was using one in the very early 70's the pedals should be in the 1971 catalog or it would have to be an earlier catalog, which I have never seen nor does Orange have one on the website.

I think they look like late 70's.

I think the guy has a sticky "0" on his keyboard because he has the price as $500 :shock:

For that money I'd want the toe Gilmore used to engage it thrown in, whether it was his pedal or not. Whether it was his toe or not too.
