Really easy to install, clear instructions and sounds great, really fills out the sound and pushes a valve amp to saturation.

Not sure it was worth it tbh
Chris4229 20.01.2015
Arrived promptly as always from Thomann. Installed yesterday with a set of EMG SA's, easy enough to install and use.
I'm yet to use it in a loud gig or rehearsal situation but so far I'm a bit "meh". It did what it said it would, boosts the mid range, but tbh I find the lack of bottom and top end when on full a little too much and borderline unusable (for my uses anyway). If you keep it between 1 and 5 then it's ok and could be useful for a bit of extra drive on solo's, or to fatten up the sound a bit. Above that and you lose any clarity in your sound and it just gets swamped with mids.
My idea of Presence is associated with the Presence knob on an amp which to my ear gives more clarity, don't expect that with this product, quite the opposite in fact. If that's your want then maybe try the EXG or RPC pots...? I may look at these next.
All in all I don't think I'd buy it again, but that's just my opinion.

Simple, versatile, and just brilliant
Anonymous 08.10.2016
I bought this one for my Stratocaster as I was looking for something to give the single coils some more power/presence at times, mostly inspired by David Gilmour's tone in PULSE... I couldn't be happier!
It works really well with cleans, with a considerable volume boost and thick mids that fatten the thin sounding single coils, and it's also great to boost your overdriven/distorted sound for solos.
The parts are sturdy, particularly the output jack, and it is very simple to use. The installation however needed some attention due to EMG's solderless system (though they work just fine with regular, passive pickups), which made things slightly harder. The battery life is excellent, I've used the same battery for over one year of frequent playing at home.
Overall, without a doubt, a great tool to shape your sound and push it further, and worth the investment.

Habe alle meine relic-strats damit ausgestattet. Erweitert das Tonspectrum und gibt eine extra Portion Schub. Vor allem der Steg-PU läßt sich damit schön andicken. Funktioniert bestens - mit passiven PUs. Auch kein Höhenverlust mehr bei langen Kabeln. Keine Nebengeräusche. Einbau einfach, da gute Anleitung beiliegt. Es muß allerdings genug Platz für die 9Volt-Batterie vorhanden sein.
Die Klinkenbuchse muß der beiliegenden Stereo-Klinkenbuchse weichen. Hier könnte es evtl. etwas eng werden. Mein Tip: empfehlenswert.
