They do show up from time to time and yes those older BOSS pedals just seem to last on and on.

Picked up A Sub Buzz to try out.
I like what you've done there. I've been thinking of replacing my tuner with the HPF that you have. I can probably live without a tuner on my board.

Quick throw together with new to me cat 5f6. Um, this effin rocks in the rockiest sense. I dig the original paint, and it was pristine new cond.
It’s not that big, and you seem to have some margin to work with. I think you could easily fit it on without sacrificing anything.
Agreed, the Broughton HPF is pretty small. @BassicJazzy If you have capacity to add another pedal to your power supply it should fit on your board no problem.
Your MXR/EHX pedals each draw 15mA max - the HPF only pulls 10mA - it should easily be able to share a tap with any of those without issue
Why replace the tuner? There should be enough space to fit both the tuner and the HPF.
The Spark Booster is such a cheap, great sounding, versatile pedal. I've got 4 of them.
Yeah, you are right. I just need to order two more of the clamps from Guitto. They only give you 8, enough for 4 pedals. My power supply has a fifth output so no issue there. I really do need the HPF, just recorded with the MXR without one and it's too "boomy."
Almost ordered it but they only do PayPal, and I don't do PayPal. Guess I'm going to have to live without it. Interesting that nobody in US seems to make an HPF? The only ones I found are made in Poland or England, or the Canadian Boughton.
If I had known at the time, I would have bought an Empress instead of the MXR Compressor. It has a built in HPF.
Keep an eye on the classifieds. They pop up regularly.
And the HPF on the Empress isn’t in the audio path, it’s just in the side chain that helps tune how the compressor reacts to your lows.
you don’t do PayPal so maybe classifieds isn’t the best optionYou won’t need a PayPal account to make a purchase. I don’t have PayPal. You’ll be walked through it on Broughton’s website when you go to checkout.
Can you explain that a little? I stopped when it said Payment will be via PayPal. Can I use a credit card if I proceed?
Thanks for pointing that out. I just ordered the HPF using credit card. The order process allows that, as you stated.
