EQD.Hoof.Reaper

Coming Soon! 

Hoof Reaper Octave Fuzz Street Date: Friday November 23, 2012 Watch a video demo:  MAP: $295.00 USD The Hoof Reaper features our popular Hoof and Tone Reaper fuzz pedals in one handy enclosure with the added bonus of an old school analog octave up.

This device will be manufactured in limited quantities.

Fargen.Amps

We are excited to now be working with Fargen Amps and Sonic Edge Pedals! 

Now in its 10th year, Fargen Amplification has progressed from a small one man operation, into a thriving boutique company that ships world class guitar amplifiers to discerning players on three continents. Benjamin Fargen also provides consultant design work as well as world tour amp support, to many of the world’s most celebrated guitarists.

Musicians are on the hunt for the ultimate tone. They often purchase amplifiers and effects off-the-shelf, and then modify them in order to correct deficiencies in the product, and to accomplish better tone, often trying to match the tone of their favorite artist. Fargen's tube amplifiers are all hand wired. Fargen's standard amp line consists of four models that represent the best of classic and modern tone. They create an unlimited number of design in the Fargen Custom Shop, where they build to customer specs. Fargen's effects pedal line, Sonic Edge Pedals, leverage their amps circuitry. All of Fargen's designs are 100% original and are not clones or imitations of other company's model. 

We will be featuring  each amp and Sonic Edge Pedals soon on our blog site. We welcome Fargen Amps to Elevation Boutiques. For more information on Fargen or to order email Brandon@elevationboutiques.com

EQD.Talons

$195.00 + Shipping

The newest from EarthQuaker Devices is here! 

The Talons is an extremely versatile overdrive with options of a clean OD all the way to heavy metal and everything in between. In EarthQuaker style this all handmade machine will not break the bank, coming in at just $195. 

From EQD: "The Talons Overdrive is a project we have been working on for a long time at EQD. After nearly a year of variations and fine tuning we finally nailed the versatility we were after! It very well may be the best and most useful go-to overdrive we have ever heard! Embracing best-of-breed functionalities, it features a full active tone stack, a presence control for sculpting the top end and more gain than one should ever need from an overdrive in a very compact format. Unlike all our other overdrives, the Talons was not designed to emulate any specific sound or era. It can be glassy and open, scooped and chunky, gritty and wild, light and airy, drunk and unhinged... Maximize your visionary functionalities with the Talons! Artwork by the legendary Dan Grzeca!"

The Talons is an ultra flexible dirt machine that can go from clean to crunch and everything in between with a swift turn of the gain control. Add to that a powerful active 3 band equalization sector and some top end contour via the presence control and you’ve got one versatile little buddy at your disposal. Unlike all our other overdrives, the Talons was not designed to emulate any specific sound or era. It can be glassy and open, scooped and chunky, gritty and wild, light and airy, drunk and unhinged… it will not disappoint you.

True Bypass and Handmade with sweet loving care in Akron, Ohio.

A versatile overdrive that goes from dirty boost to dynamic drive tones, to high gain break-up bliss. The tone knob adds saturation and girth to the overall sound, while the mud knob controls the gain going into the circuit. The Lil Dirt is a natural extension of your guitar and amplifier, retains your original tone, and sounds as convincing as a cranked tube amp. This is not another cliche overdrive, this is the Lil Dirt. 100% hand-built in the USA with high quality components, and (as always) true bypass.

REV. 1 : The first revision has seen a dramatic increase in the input inpedance, giving more clarity and fidelity to the tone.

EQD.Monarch

We get a lot of questions on this more than fantastic overdrive by EarthQuaker Devices and as OD's go it's on of the best not to mention one of our personal favorites. 

Monarch Overdrive

The Monarch Overdrive is an all discrete, FET based dirt machine. It’s designed around the input stage of a vintage amp produced by a company that bears the same name as the color of the monarch (hint...). It’s been configured to produce higher gains that sound very natural and free of compression. The treble and bass controls function as frequency boosters, not the traditional roll off filters in most OD’s. They are located in the preamp section and have a large impact on the over all tone, nature and distortion characteristics of the pedal as well as your amp. It gives big bottom end with a snappy, bright top at all gain ranges with some careful tuning of the tone controls. If you are looking for an overdrive for big fat chords with excellent low end retention, this is it! And, yes, it's true bypass.

Handmade with sweet loving care in Akron Ohio.

Measures4.37" X 2.37" X 1.75" with knobs

Last.Aphelion

We have one more Spaceman Aphelion Harmonic Overdrive. Over the last month they have been discontinued and have quickly disappeared from shop displays. We have one left. Maybe it's the last one in the country...who knows?

Our guess is if you are here you already know about this elusive pedal. You may also know that everything Spaceman makes is limited in number and will never be manufactured again.

This Aphelion is #16/99 and is the one shown in our demo video.

EQD.Speaker.Cranker

SPEAKER CRANKER IS NOT A BOOSTER, IT'S AN OVERDRIVE.

The Speaker Cranker is an all discrete dirt enhancement device designed to give your amp some grit and a slight boost without drastically changing the character or tone of your set up. It’s perfect for those that don’t like to fiddle with pesky controls yet want to add a little tube-like breakup or enhance an already over driven amp (or pedal) to give it some extra crunch without over loading the preamp. The single “More” control allows you choose the amount of break up you desire. Just like you would with a tube amp, back it off to thin out the sound and clean it up or crank it up for a fuller sound with a bit of compression.

EQD.Organizer

It's here!

EarthQuaker Devices obviously don't know how to disappoint. 

Their latest release, The Organizer is here and it is unbelievably cool! 

We have it here and it's ready for your board. 

The Organizer is so popular already that upon ordering be ready to wait 7 days before it ships. 

*We will post a demo of this pedal soon*

The Organizer is a polyphonic organ emulator designed to mimic the organ tones of yesteryear crossed with the highly unique “Guitorgan”. The organizer has a warm and very analog  feel with a hint of Leslie warble that is unlike other modern  octave shifters. It tracks all over the neck on both guitar and  bass and will transpose single notes as well as chords. The  Organizer uses a mix of analog and DSP circuitry with true bypass switching and an all analog direct (dry) signal path.

The controls:

• Up: Level control for the octave up.
  
• Down: Level control for the octave down.
  
• Choir: This control takes a mix of the octave up and octave down setting and regenerates it. The end result is an additional 2 octaves up, 2 octaves down and direct signal with a slight delay that adds a “church organ” like feel. This control only works if the octave up and octave down are in use.
  
• Direct: Level control for the analog dry signal.
  
• Tone: Low pass filter for the wet signal, counter clockwise rolls off the high end.
  
• Lag: Delay control for the wet signal. Full counter clockwise is minimal delay, delay time increases as it rotates clockwise.

PowerA standard 9 volt DC power supply with a negative center 2.1mm barrel, current draw is 70ma. No battery option.

EQD.Dispatch.Master

As one of our top selling pedals, The Dispatch Master, from EarthQuaker Devices gives you exactly what you want in reverb and delay. It's the smaller and more modern answer to EQD's well loved, limited run Ghost Disaster from 2010! The Dispatch Master is a digital delay and reverb unit with an all analog, direct signal path and true bypass switching. It is capable of producing nearly 2 seconds of delay time with near-infinite repeats and a cavernous reverb. Both effects can be run separately or in unison. Even though it is a DSP based effect, the sound is warm and full. No sterile lifeless tones here! The delay signal is clear and strong with no after effects or signal degradation and the repeats decay into a nice ambient swell with no oscillation. The reverb is MASSIVE and is sure to please those who love EQD's Ghost Echo, but want more depth and less artifacts. It's the perfect "Black Hole Ambience Generator" and has been featured in Premier Guitar Magazine, receiving the Premier Gear award.

The options on The Dispatch Master seem to be endless. To use as a reverb only, turn the time control all the way down, adjust the reverb and mix controls to taste. In this mode, the repeats control can be used to enhance the thickness, decay, depth and overall nature of the reverb. With the reverb control at it’s maximum setting, the repeats control will gradually overload the effect at higher settings. To use as a delay only, turn the reverb control all the way down and adjust the time, repeats and mix controls to taste. To use both effects in unison, adjust all controls to taste. It's true bypass and hand made one at a time in landlocked, Akron, Ohio. Try it out at Namm (booth 2596) along with the rest of the EQD line, including new releases! A masterpiece! 

Silver.Spaceman.Aphelion

Spaceman Effect's extremely popular Aphelion Harmonic Overdrive is starting to get low in numbers. Spaceman has never backed down from making each effect limited in quantity no matter what. The Aphelion is no different. Like the Mercury lll, Spacerocket & Gemini lll, The Aphelion will soon run out and only be found with select dealers, ebay and you may even stumble upon one at a pawn shop in Nashville. The catch is, you'll pay a bit more for it. When they sell out from Spaceman's site it's no surprise that the price goes up on these now rare pedals.

The Aphelion has already sold through it's custom colors like the Chrome, Silver Sparkle, Blue and even a Black reverse color faceplate!

Don't tear up yet because you can still get the standard unfinished silver version and get the exact same tone as all the other fancy Aphelions! And you can get it right here at Elevation Boutiques!

Don't wait on this. We've seen it happen before...you wait...and bam, it's gone for good.

The Gemini III is an all-discrete (no IC's) transistor fuzz.  It features two different fuzz circuits in parallel, one vintage germanium and the other, modern silicon.  The germanium side uses vintage 70’s, NOS AC128 transistors, prized for their classic fuzz-tone. 

      The two vastly different fuzzes are blended together via the Ge/Si knob for a layered fuzz tone.  Each fuzz has a choice of three gain settings via toggle switch.  The Master knob controls the output of the final mix, and has enough gain on tap to cause a supernova. 

      The unique tone control affects each fuzz independently, yet at the same time.  12:00 yields a balanced full range fuzz, turn CW for a fantastic mid-scoop and CCW to smooth out the highs.  The remaining toggle switch controls the direction of the tone-sweep for the germanium side, allowing for opposite sweep directions.  The controls allow for many tone combinations between the two fuzz circuits, for some very unique fuzz blends. 

      Completely hand-soldered and handmade in Portland Oregon, the Gemini III utilizes true-bypass switching via the heaviest-duty mechanical footswitch available.  Open one up and you’ll see an unparalleled display of craftsmanship.  Thick, high quality PCB’s, along with detailed military-spec wiring using vintage USA made heavy gauge stranded wire.  On top of the USA-cast aluminum enclosure sits an engraved vinyl faceplate and custom engraved knobs.  This fuzz is built to last a lifetime. 

      The Gemini III covers a wide range of usable fuzz territory, including lower-gain classic tones, heavy high-gain/scooped-mid tones and so much more.  There's plenty of low frequency response on hand to make for an equally awesome bass fuzz (highly recommended for bass).  Also great for baritone and synth. 

      Each pedal is numbered on the nameplate, boasting it's limited availability, and in addition each is signed and numbered on the inside.  The Gemini III also comes with a transferable three year warranty, plus a lifetime discount repair plan.
