$145-$175Westwood Translucent Drive Manipulator
A touch-sensitive, low-to-medium gain overdrive with a powerful active EQ section offering up to 20dB of cut or boost at 80Hz and 2kHz. The Westwood is designed to push tube amps into natural breakup while preserving every nuance of your picking dynamics. Electronic relay-based switching and a transparent voice let your amp's character stay front and center. Hand-built in Akron, Ohio.
$140-$165Hoof V2 Germanium/Silicon Hybrid Fuzz
A rich, musical fuzz loosely based on the classic green Russian Muff-style circuit, rebuilt with a Germanium/Silicon hybrid topology for maximum warmth and temperature stability. The Shift control sweeps the mid-frequency content from scooped valleys to honking boosts, while the wide gain range covers everything from overdriven amp tones to molten fuzz madness. Hand-built in Akron, Ohio.
$100-$125Plumes Small Signal Shredder Overdrive
EarthQuaker's take on the symmetrical clipping overdrive, the Plumes offers three selectable clipping modes spanning clean boost, soft-clip op-amp crunch, and asymmetrical LED breakup. Tight and dynamic with a wide tonal range, it responds naturally to your picking attack and guitar's volume knob. Hand-built in Akron, Ohio.
$175-$200Afterneath V3 Enhanced Otherworldly Reverberator
A cavernous algorithmic reverb that transforms your guitar into a diffuse swarm of swirling echoes. The V3 adds a Drag control for tap-tempo-compatible time-stretching and a switchable buffered/true bypass mode so tails ring out naturally after you release the footswitch. Every detail is hand-soldered and hand-tested in Akron, Ohio.
