Earthquaker Devices Dirt Transmitter™ Legacy Reissue Fuzz Driver
$289.00
Limited to 1000 units worldwide. Originally created as the third in a very long line of EarthQuaker Devices fuzz pedals, this early circuit went on to become regarded as one of Jamie Stillman’s best and most interesting fuzz creations. Used for years by your favorite musicians and a cult following of Dirt Transmitter fanatics, this effect has been out of EQD’s lineup for some time … until now! Laid out simply with four knobs: Level, Fuzz, Tone, and Bias, this thing is easy to use, and you’d be hard pressed to find a setting that doesn’t totally rip. So put away that hand sanitizer and dig into this gloriously dirty tone.
The secret sauce, or magic jus, if you will, of this pedal lies in its rare silicon transistors that offer a gritty top end response and more gain than typical germanium transistors. This enables a biting edge with a rounder tone that doesn’t go overboard with high end distortion. You can dial it in to be gain-heavy and leave it on as your permanent tone for a killer sonic vibe. It can also give you a wider range that goes from overdrive to fuzz without being too loose. That’s the power of silicon right there.
CONTROLS
Fuzz: Clockwise for heavier tones, counterclockwise for lighter tones.
Tone: Clockwise for a brighter, more cutting tone, counterclockwise to roll off top end for more mellow tones.
Bias: This is the heart of the Dirt Transmitter, where all of its voices can be found. It affects the voltage to the transistors which will create more gated Velcro® fuzz tones counterclockwise and thicker, natural fuzz tones clockwise. It is “properly biased” at 5 o’clock.
Level: Clockwise for more, counterclockwise for less.
