Hey bub! Welcome to your new EarthQuaker Devices brand Bellows fuzzdrive! The Bellows
is a back-to-basics, transistor-based dirt device. This two-knob wonder has a whole lot
of character for such a simple, unassuming pedal. It straddles the line between amp-like
grit and fuzzy saturation to create a remarkably vintage, tweed-type tone. Similar to the
volume control of a “non master” amp, the Drive determines how hard the signal hits
the input. At lower drive levels it’s a little wider and grittier. Resist the usual urge to dime
it and keep the Drive low for mellow, amp-like break up. Slowly bring up the Drive and
you’ll eventually end up in blown out fuzz land, having passed a bunch of useful distorted
places in between. It’s pretty much every era of rock n’ roll in a box. While designed for
guitar, Bellows also handles bass extremely well at growling low and scorching high levels.
And if you’re a guitar player that fancies themselves a bass player- then forget it, this is
your
favorite dirt pedal. Each and every bellows is made by a bunch of bearded dudes
and a couple ladies in the comedic drama section of Akron, Ohio.
This device is true bypass and uses relay based “soft touch” switching. Audio will not
pass without power.
