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.
We offer free 48-hour tracked UK delivery on all orders over £150! Order before 9pm for next-working-day dispatch.
We offer 30-day hassle-free returns so you can pick the item you want safe in the knowledge that if it's not for you, we'll take it back and refund your order.
International deliveries are subject to additional import duties and VAT at your local rate. These charges are payable to the courier at time of delivery. Calculate how much you will need to pay here.
Please note that some orders may take longer to be processed before shipping during the busiest periods of the year.
Customers hold the right to return a product for a full refund if I am notified within 30 days of delivery.
If a product is delivered in a defective or damaged condition, please contact me immediately with details of your order.
To be eligible for a return, the item must be in the same condition
that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.
Please note, the cost of return delivery is to be paid by the customer. This will be reimbursed if the item is shown to be faulty.
To complete a return, I require a receipt or proof of purchase. Please do not send any items back to the manufacturer, and please do not send any items to me without contacting me first.
Once I have confirmed that I will process your return, please send the item to:
Boost Guitar Pedals (returns)
84 Wolf Lane
Windsor
Berkshire
SL4 4YZ
United Kingdom
My first course of action for faulty items is to replace them like-for-like. If this is not possible, a full refund will be considered as an alternative.
If returned within the 30-day period, your refund will be processed and a credit will be applied to your credit card or original method of payment.
The customer is responsible for paying return shipping costs. Shipping costs are non-refundable unless a product is proven to be damaged or faulty upon delivery.
It is recommended that items should be returned using a trackable shipping service in case the item goes missing en route.
The Greenhouse Effects Universalis Special Edition Sludge Hammer fuzz is the result of a collaboration with Doom/Stoner band Celestial Season to commemorate 25 years of the Dutch band's Solar Lovers album.
The pedal is switchable from the classic Solar Lovers style (recorded with transistor amps, graphic equalisers and Boss Metal Zones) to the modern tone of the latest album, The Secret Teachings.
The gain (Soul) control goes from rhythm crunch to a thick wall of fuzzy distortion, while the tone (Mind) control is wide ranging, allowing you to dial in enough bite to cut through the mix - or dial out the bite if you prefer a woolier, stoner-rock sound.
The Body control works interactively with the Mind control to adjust the thickness of your sound, altering the response of the important low-mid frequency range.
Greenhouse Effects pedals are hand-built by Roy
Zichri in Israel. Founded in 2004, Greenhouse Effects today boasts a range of innovative and great sounding guitar pedals topped off with eye-catching artwork.
Designed to "inspire creativity and help connect musicians to their instruments", Roy makes a point of adding plenty of features to all Greenhouse Effects pedals, such as the 3 gain stages and active EQ of the Outlier Overdrive, the modulation effects of the Deity Reverb, and the "Logos" mode of the Logos Chorus-Vibrato.
Even the stripped-back Roots series pedals have surprising features, such as the two-channel design of the Roots Fuzz.
In 2011, Dweezil Zappa - an endorsed Greenhouse Effects artist - played one of Jimi Hendrix's Stratocasters on the Tonight Show with
Alice Cooper, using Greenhouse Effects pedals.
As well as creating a successful range of his own pedals, Roy has designed PCB layouts for the likes of Darkglass Electronics, JHS and Wren & Cuff.
