Description
The Arborist was born as the silicon side of the former Giganteum Drive, offering excellent discrete transistor tones in the same package as our Germanium boost. We've repackaged the circuit in a familiar top-mount jack and slim enclosure for more pedalboard friendly use. The Arborist is a perfectly balanced medium gain drive pedal that is mostly happy pushing your tube amp into sweet overdrive or as a tone shaping tool in drive stacking. You can dial the gain all the way back and use the loads of gain on tap with the volume control to annihilate the front end of your amp. Dial the volume back and turn the gain control up to get that sweet, sweet transistor overdrive. The tone control is wired in classic Spruce Effects fashion, with thin and trebly CCW, and beefy and low-end heavy on the CW side. Use the fat toggle to add low-mids in to perfectly match your guitar and amp needs.
Switchcraft Jacks True Bypass Enclosure printed and drilled in the USA Hand wired and assembled in California Standard negative ground power
