EARTHQUAKER DEVICES ZOAR – AMP LIKE MODERN DISTORTION PEDAL
The EarthQuaker Devices Zoar is a medium to high gain distortion pedal that brings real amp like dynamics and clarity to your board. Designed for guitarists and bassists who need touch sensitivity, precision, and massive versatility, the Zoar delivers everything from crisp overdrive to crushing, saturated distortion.
Whether you are dialing in drop tuned riffs, shimmering cleans, or wall shaking doom tones, the Zoar provides a wide tonal range with modern articulation and incredible response.
AMP LIKE, ALL ANALOG DESIGN
The Zoar features an all discrete transistor circuit with no op amps or clipping diodes, giving it a raw, natural tone that reacts like a great tube amp. Its passive 3 band EQ and unique Weight control make it easy to fine tune the feel and response, from tight and punchy to thick and woolly.
It is equally at home with guitar or bass, maintaining clarity even at extreme gain levels, and its true bypass relay switching ensures quiet, seamless performance on stage or in the studio.
