D R AG S T ER™ LOAD CORRECTION Tonebone Smar t S h e e t
The Dragster is a load correction device designed to restore the full, rich tone you lose when you
plug your guitar into a buffered input such as a wireless system. Dragster makes passive pickups
“think” (and sound like) they’re connected directly to an amplifier by simulating the impedance of an
amplifier by allowing you to adjust the load on the pickup.
Guitar amplifiers are typically high impedance inputs and pickups sound their best when connected
to an amp. Buffered inputs are typically low impedance and pickups can sound “thin, weak and brittle”
when connected directly to them. Examples of buffered inputs are wireless transmitters, digital
effects, mixers, sound cards and recorders. Dragster is inserted between the guitar and the buffered
input. The thumb wheel lets you dial-in the perfect impedance for the most natural sound. Result?
Your guitar tone regains it’s warmth – it feels ‘right’ again and your performance sounds great!
Dragster is a compact, passive device featuring 1/4” connectors, lightweight aluminum
construction and a single ‘thumb wheel’ control. The Dragster may be sewn onto a guitar strap for
use with a wireless transmitter, or be hidden away on a pedalboard.
Features 1/4” input and output
jacks for easy hook-up.
