EarthQuaker Devices Barrows Fuzz Attacker Effect Pedal
Small but mighty, the EarthQuaker Devices Barrows Fuzz Attacker is a bite-sized beast in the spirit of classic fuzz circuits. Dropping in to fill a small but impactful space in everyone's board, the Barrows taps into a universal fuzzy instinct within all of us to crank the fuzz and ask questions later.
The Barrows has its origins with the highly-coveted vintage fuzz circuits of yesteryear. Today's Barrows is a take on the Tone Bender MkII, itself originally based on the Maestro Fuzz-Tone, featuring a germanium three-transistor circuit. Among today's most coveted fuzz pedals, the Tone Bender MkII contains a legendary fuzz tone that endures to this day. Original Tone Benders are responsible for some of history's most crushing riffs and the Barrows follows in that same example while enjoying modern EQD reliability and versatility.
At its center, the Barrows features a trifecta of carefully matched germanium transistors nestled within finely tuned circuitry. This careful and refined design results in a varied spectrum of fuzz tones from light, singing distortion to punishing fuzz with everlasting harmonic-rich sustain as you roll through the Level and Attack dials. The Barrows gets to the center of the Tone Bender ethos with its signature cutting, mid-focused tones with a solid low-end foundation and brilliant top-end grind. EQD prioritized its trademark versatility and performance-forward design to back up the Barrows' vintage tonal sensibilities to last. The Barrows features a phase-corrected design and a buffered output as it plays nicely with other pedals downstream with an increased output volume.
For players looking to summon the spirit of Benders past, EQD and the Barrows acts as a veritable summoning circle to materialize a ferocious specter of fuzz time after time.
- Tone Bender MkII-style fuzz tone
- Three-germanium transistor circuit design
- Two-control dial Volume and Attack setup
- Phase-corrected and buffered output
- Analog circuit with true bypass footswitching
- Standard nine-volt DC center negative power operation
