Earthquaker Devices Westwood Translucent Overdrive Pedal

If you go down to the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise... and a pleasant one at that! Introducing the Westwood, a hand-made Translucent Drive Manipulator pedal from Earthquaker Devices!

Premium-Quality, Hand-Made Construction

Whether you're looking to boost your trusty low-wattage combo amp with anything from cutting, on-the-verge-of-breakup rhythm tones, up to screaming lead voicings with plenty of sweet sustain, then be prepared for an experience you're not likely to forget. If your amp of choice is a big ol' head and cab then strap yourselves in and be prepared for an experience that your neighbours (and their neighbours) aren't likely to forget either! Not that we here at PMT would condone anything like that (...do it, you know you want to).

Easy to Master Controls

Featuring a sweet Drive control, powerful 2-band EQ section, and enough Level manipulation to help you achieve your first ASBO if you're not careful, the Westwood is the drive pedal that we've all been yearning for but never dared to dream would exist.

• Drive lets you determine just how much gain is added to your sound, with levels ranging from almost-clean up to soaring lead tones that, whilst being cutting and distinct, are never harsh! The pedal responds to changes in guitar volume and pick attack at all settings, allowing every subtle nuance of your playing to shine through
• Treble and Bass gives you up to 20dB of cut/boost, allowing you to sculpt the overall output as you please. Want to tame those ice-picky single coils, or give those deep and growly humbuckers a lift? No problem! Want to tighten the low-end of an already dark sounding guitar? You've got it! You can even introduce tube-like sag for a "browned out" sound! You can also add some warm low-mids and a smooth top end into your Bass guitar sound with the Westwood, on top of that vintage grit!

Handmade in Akron, Ohio

Each and every Westwood is lovingly hand-crafted under the full moon by venerated hill-tribe elders in Akron, Ohio, USA. These boutique pedals are built to last the trials and tribulations of life on the road, and are designed to fit snuggly onto any pedalboard with their top-mounted jack-socket construction.
