Acapulco Gold
Distortion
Listing Description
The EarthQuaker Devices Acapulco Gold is a distortion effects pedal designed to emulate the sound and response of a high-gain Sunn Model T amplifier. This one-knob power amp distortion pedal offers aggressive distortion tones approaching the edge of fuzz, with dynamic response to playing style and guitar volume adjustments. The pedal utilizes true bypass switching and features relay-based soft-touch operation for silent on/off engagement. Audio signal does not pass through when the unit is unpowered.
