EarthQuaker Devices is proud to introduce you to your new best bud, Gary. This little big guy was dreamt up by the one and only Lee Kiernan from the crushing and most necessary band IDLES!
Gary started as a simple request to create a compact version of the now discontinued Gray Channel®, which was a mainstay on Lee’s board and a big part of his main drive tone. This was all fine and good, and sounded quite sick, but Gary was demanding that his clients look deeper and explore his dark side a little more, Gary after dark, Saturday night Gary. So, they sat him down and began the trek of figuring out old Gare-Bear once and for all.
The result is a dynamic and destructive pulse width modulated fuzz paired with a natural-sounding op-amp overdrive.
