Electro-Harmonix LPB-3 | More Than Just a Boost


Up to 33dB of clean boost





Does your signal sound too puny? If so, the LPB-3 Linear Power Booster packs a few pounds of muscle.

You also get a Pre-Gain knob to fine-tune the total gain and volume of your boost. With the LPB-3 on your pedalboard, your too-clean signal will achieve saturated euphoria with a simple tap of your foot.





Powerful active 3-band EQ





The Electro-Harmonix LPB-3 Linear Power Booster boasts a full-featured active 3-band EQ with Treble, Bass, and a parametric Mid section. The Mid section is fully parametric, brandishing Mid Level and Mid Freq knobs, along with an adjustable Q. Sweetwater guitarists appreciate the level of precision provided by the LPB-3. Whether you want a low-end infusion or need to goose your upper-midrange harmonics, the LPB-3 is the right tool for the job.
