Hello. I was looking for a signal booster for my passive risa stick as I read there can be a low signal with a longer cable run of over ten feet. My current run is short(2 meters) to compensate and works fine currently, but I am looking to build a pedal board and know that each pedal will add about a foot of signal chain, therefore I am interested(IE think I need?) a signal booster. The total cable run when all said and done will be a minimum of 12 feet.
The Fishman GII preamp would be ideal but no longer available. The Danelectro Fish and Chips pedal has a boost on it though most of the EQ is not in the usable range for a ukulele(C4 to C6 I believe). It has the advantage of being very affordable too so thinking this before buying used or paying over 100 bucks for a proper preamp pedal. Also for the GII I am not so sure what power supply it uses where the fish and chips will work with a 1 spot 9v adapter.
Any thoughts or experience would be greatly appreciated.
