20dB of pure, clean boost!

Ascent is a pure clean boost pedal offering 20dB of gain with near-zero tonal coloration across the whole frequency range.

This is coupled with Peter Hamstead’s usual design refinements including ±15v internally isolated power for super high 30V headroom.

The all-analog Ascent also features an OptoKick footswitch courtesy of TheGigRig and buffered or true bypass operation.


A boost for the music industry.

Built by techs from bands including AC/DC, Queen, Guns N’ Roses and Iggy Pop, Ascent is more than just a high grade, pure clean boost.

Ascent has been designed to be made remotely by backline technicians whose livelihoods have been affected by COVID.

Each and every Ascent will be hand soldered, signed and dated by the tech that built it.

Every Ascent sold enables you to give financial support direct to the builders.

Hamstead also donates 10% of the profits to the helpmusicians.org.uk charity to try and help as many people in the industry as possible.
