    SHIPPING TO THE USA – The Royal Mail has created a new PDDP (Postal Delivery Duties Paid) service, which will calculate exact costs at the moment we book your shipping. While we are happy to absorb some of the costs, if the cost of the pre-paid duty is significantly more than what you have paid when placing your order, we will be in touch to request the balance is covered by you.

    If in doubt, get in touch and we can give you an accurate quote in advance.

    About the FORMULA B Eighty Master V2


    The Formula B Eighty Master V2 is an update on the OG Eighty Master.

    While still focused on the same fire-breathing Marshall JCM800 sounds, it ditches the original's onboard three-way compression for a slimmer footprint and independent Gain controls for each of the two footswitchable channels.

    For this reason, depending on your use case you may find the original Eighty Master a slightly better proposition. If you're really committed to those JCM800 tones, you could even use both versions of the Eighty Master in a four-channel setup!

    Eighty Master V2 Controls

    The Eighty Master V2 is an all-in-one preamp, featuring 3-band EQ, presence ("Modeling") control, two Gain controls on mini pots, and a Volume control.

    The left footswitch switches between Channel 1 (the "50W" mode on the original) and Channel 2 ("100W" mode), which access the independent Gain settings, while the right footswitch activates and deactivates the pedal.

    Headroom

    You can run the Eighty Master at either the standard 9V, or use an 18V supply for even more headroom.

    About Formula B

    Formula B pedals are hand built by Marco Bovelli in
    Todi in Umbria, Italy. Taking classic gear as his inspiration, Marco crafts extraordinary guitar pedals with innovative features: for example, his Fuzz Rangers and Super Plexi pedals allow the user to set the boost before or after the main effect for varying sonic possibilities.

    The Formula B Vintage Vibe is one of our bestselling guitar pedals, and it's easy to see why - it's an homage to the Uni-Vibe, made famous by the likes of Jimi Hendrix, and features the lush, organic chewiness of the original combined with additional features suited to the modern pedalboard.

    The Mini Bender Combo squeezes Tone Bender Mk1.5 and MkII Pro circuits into one gorgeous
    enclosure. "Sounds really authentically visceral," says Stefan Karlsson at Guitar Pedal X.

    There's also the Fuzz Rangers Limited Edition,
    a world exclusive for Boost Guitar Pedals. It adds a silicon/germanium toggle replicating the sounds of the Fuzz Face in Si mode, and the Cesar Diaz Square Face in Ge mode.

    Formula B pedals have ended up in the hands (or more accurately, at the feet) of guitar luminaries including Slash and Diego Leanza.
