The Bellows Legacy Reissue Fuzz Driver by EarthQuaker Devices

Bellows is a two-knob wonder imbued with a whole lot of character for such a wee, simple, and unassuming pedal. It straddles the line between amp-like grit and fuzzy saturation to create a remarkably vintage, tweed-type tone.

Similar to the volume control of a “non master” amp, the Drive determines how hard the signal hits the input. At lower drive levels it’s a little wider and grittier. If you can resist the usual urge to dime the Drive, you’ll be rewarded with forcefully mellow, amp-like break up. Slowly bring up the Drive and you’ll eventually end up in blown out fuzz land, having passed a bunch of useful distorted places on your way. It’s pretty much every era of rock n’ roll in a box.

Controls:

1. Level: Adjusts the output level by setting the bias voltage of the transistor. A small amount of noise while dialing this in is perfectly normal.
   
2. Drive: Controls the input gain of the device for different levels of dirt. You’ll find that it is thinner and more clean counterclockwise and thicker with more growl clockwise.
