The Ash Device is a DIY pedal inspired by the limited edition EQD Black Ash fuzz/overdrive. It offers an explosive yet precise treble response, a powerful and articulate midrange, and a magmatic subterranean bass extension. It has three controls: Fuzz, Top, and Volume. The Top control adjusts key frequencies between 2kHz and 10kHz to select how ‘forward’ the guitar sits in a full-band mix and helps to pair this dynamic fuzz Ash Device with different pickup types. At low settings, the signal takes an organic quality, with a soft, pleasantly subdued upper harmonic presence. At high settings, it offers a more robust response, with a sharp attack that makes humbuckers chime and makes single coils glisten. The Gain control has plenty of output gain that surpasses unity. The Fuzz knob adjusts the amount of gain cooled-off amp-like breakup to erupting burning fuzz tones. With the Ash Device, you can build one of the scarcest pedals out there, with a board able to capture many of the best qualities of a Tone Bender.
