go with the ibanez tube screamerQuote

I bought a Ibanez Tube-screamer recently. Works great. Have been using a Fuzz Face for some years. Also great. But if u only want a treble boost, just kicking on the wah-wah will work too. Will be slightly louder and more treble.

Mathijs is talking outta his bum when he says treble boosters are only good for wild solos.
The D*A*M Red Rooster is a seriously good and versatile pedal!

while it sounds excellent what you play it's not really something typical for a treble booster...

What you deem to be typical treble boost tone and what the effect is capable of are two different things then.
Perhaps it's the pedals you have tried, but my experience with treble boosters has been that it is capable of helping you achieve a whole variety of tones, from subtle fuzzy overdrive, sustaining leads, thick riffing, tight and crunchy guitar sounds.
From I feel Free thick clapton woman tone to Keith like Can't you Hear Me Knocking? raunch.
...
Getting back to what the original thread was about, a well made and good sounding treble booster will easily help you achieve "...some nice crunch and a bit of sustain for solos.".

My affiliation is via buying some pedals, doing sound clips, getting some custom stuff made for me and becoming friends with the guy behind it.

I've went through a good few pedals, but have ended with just a custom made MKII Tone Bender.

The clips do sound fantastic, this guy seems to know what he's doing. And expensive on Ebay!

To be honest I thought it was a Blues Junior I was getting! (it was all done through a friend of a friend)
