Tele goes into a Headstrong Lil' King S (buffed up BF Princeton replica) with a bunch of pedals in the middle.

I'm mainly looking for a pedal to "fatten up" my tele and maybe to get some tube distortion more easily from my amp (this little beast IS LOUD!).

The ones that caught my attention for size & cost are the EP Booster and This1smyne's Mini Solo Booster. I know both of this pedals get a lot of love on this forum.

What say you?

Edit: I've heard that the Super Hard On (which to my understanding the T1M Booster is a clone of) adds treble, which might be good for my Les Paul but not so much for my tele?

Been using my EPB intensively with a Tele for a week now. The pedal is brilliant -- fattens up the tone a bit, without losing clarity or articulation. Just makes the guitar sound BIGGER and adds a little magic I can't really describe.

+1 for the EP with Tele's.

I've got a Super Hard On Clone, and while it does add brightness, it adds everything, so I've had no issues using it with my Tele!

As a matter of fact, my SHO adds more bass than brightness, so it almost over-fattens my Les Paul.

Try it out, you might be pleasantly surprised. :)

+1 for the EP with Tele's.

+2 for the EP. Two internal dip switches for added flexibility. This also can run at 18v which adds more clean headroom and boost than any pedal at 9v. You will love it.
