EarthQuaker Devices Acapulco V2 Gold Distortion - Secondhand

Full Description

A range of distortion

The Acapulco gold might only feature a single control knob, but don’t for a second think that means this pedal only offers one tone, as you would be very mistaken. The range of tones you can get from this little powerhouse is impressive. When used in combination with your guitar's volume and tone controls you can essentially mix it up at the flick of a switch. This control allows you to access deep and dark crunch when being lenient on the tone dial, but once it’s kicked up to the max, get ready for earthquakes... pun intended.

Compact design

Space can be a precious commodity on any pedalboard, and that’s certainly a conversation that has been had at EarthQuaker Devices HQ. The Acapulco V2 Gold Distortion has a small, compact chassis that doesn’t take up much room. One thing that helps with this spatial conservation is the top-mounted jacks, which allow you to place the pedal directly next to another without worrying about clashing connections.

Top-quality construction

EarthQuaker constructs each pedal by hand in the United States, meticulously building each aspect with the utmost accuracy and precision, so you can be assured of their ability to emit a delightful and desirable sound.
