Earthquaker Devices overdrive Westwood

This light to medium gain overdrive will bring color to your combo even if it's low power, pushing your rhythms to the edge of saturation or to make your solo sound more articulate, enriched with harmonics. pairs and sustain. And if you're using it with a head and cabinet, you'd better warn your neighbors first as the Westwood has a good output level ... The Drive control controls the gain level to give an almost clear boost or to a roaring and distinct but never brutal solo sound. The Westwood responds to changes in your guitar's volume setting as well as your pick attack to reveal all the nuances of your playing. Its active and powerful EQ section offers bass and treble settings up to 20dB. Its center detent potentiometers indicate when you are on a “neutral” setting. When you feel a slight stop in the course of the tuning, there is no cut-off or boost and your sound is not altered, but has gain! The Treble setting affects the frequency range around 2 KHz and is useful for calming down overly shrill single-coil pickups or for giving humbuckers brighter, less compressed highs. The Bass setting acts around 80 Hz and can be used to tighten the bass frequencies of an already dark guitar or, at high settings, to soften your attack and approach “brown sound” with organic bass to give thick chords while only notes will burst. On bass, the Westwood gives warm mid-bass and mellow treble for a pretty vintage sound.
