Wink which boost pedal for my set up??

Currently i use a fender strat and a fender hotrod deluxe ltd with the vintage 30 speaker. I like the gain i get from the amp but i need a pedal just too boost my volume for solo parts. one that i can use on the more drive channel of my amp aswell as the clean channel. which is the best one. got bout £150
Any input would be great thanks

Definitely worth trying a Xotic RC Booster.

If you're purely after more level and 'cut' for solos, I'd say the best solution is an EQ pedal in the effects loop; Boss GE7 would do nicely.

I got a HRD and I use one of these MXR MC-402 OD & Boost pedals in the FX loop.

It works very nice, and the OD & Boost channels are separate so can be used independently for each other

A home-made one. I haven't even read what your set-up is, but all boosters should be home-made.
