Hey! Karen here! This “Tiny Turtles LOAF” is one of my first hand-painted pedals. I started with a “Tiny Things” theme (I also made a “Tiny Umbrellas” pedal that we sold.) At the time, I wanted to crawl into a hole and hide, so turtles made a lot of sense to me! I quickly realized painting pedals was a great creative outlet for me and went on to paint intricate pet portraits and other art on pedals. But I still have a soft spot in my heart for this one—it was one of my first hand-painted pedals! And as it WAS one of the firsts, it is not entirely perfect--there are a few specks in the clear coat and it has a slightly textured finish that you can only see at certain angles. But still, this is a part of BIG EAR history and these little turtles are cute AF!
IT'S TINY TURTLE TIME!!
XOXO Karen
(Internally, everything is the same as the standard LOAF fuzz!)
The LOAF is technically a medium-gain fuzz, but don’t let that fool you… It’s still huge, fat, and wooly!
While most fuzz pedals are accused of stealing your low end, the LOAF will actually do the opposite and roll off some of the harsh, brittle, and “buzzy” high-end that is associated with those other pedals.
The simple three-knob layout allows you to easily dial-in the perfect setting on every guitar.
The interactive volume and tone controls make every setting as musical as the next.
The pedal reacts to your playing-dynamics much like a classic tube amp, and of course, it cleans up beautifully as well.
As of November 2018, The LOAF will no longer contain a battery snap and will require a standard 9v (100ma) power supply with a 2.1mm barrel connector (negative center).
*This pedal DOES NOT come with a power adapter. We recommend using an isolated DC power supply.
