Earthquaker Grim Reefer

Post by TheSickness2 »

This pedal was made in super limited quantity of 150 pieces exclusively for the Day of the Shred festival 2014 by EarthQuaker Devices. Does anybody have one?
And for those lucky bastards... What are your experiences with it? How would you describe the sound? What are the controls for?

I wouldn't think they would make something this ugly.

I wonder if that's what lead to them reissuing the FMG

Sativa, Blend, Indica? Cringeworthy. I really hope EQD didn't make these.

They did make them.

I doubt they were being that serious and more so being funny about stoner metal pot 420 weed legalize it bongzilla dopesmoker.

Humor will take you far.

Ah, I could find something.

(imgur sucks, it won't show the image properly on this thread)

So, it really seems it was made by Earthquaker and it's an octave fuzz.
Here's how it sounds (for those of you who have facebook):

Also, it seems like every single one of them is numbered #420/150... :D

Sounds good, wonder how it compares to the octave side of the Hoof Reaper?

Ha! We did make those! We made 150 for our friend Evan who runs "thief presents" in long beach. These were given to bands at the "psycho de mayo" fest last year and about 20 were put up for sale. The art was done by arik roper, circuit is very similar to the fuzz master general. Yes, it's not something we would normally do but Evan is a great guy and this is what he wanted! We just did another pedal for his "Psycho California" fest this weekend! One knob distortion blaster that simulates both preamp and power amp distortion. While not trying to emulate, it's kinda similar to the sound of a cranked model T.

It's amazing how much variety you've created in the one knob market
