EARTHQUAKER DEVICES Hoof

One of EarthQuaker Devices' most popular models, The Hoof is loosely based on the classic green Russian fuzz circuit and features a hybrid Germanium/Silicon design, pairing maximum tone with maximum temperature stability not found in finicky and expensive vintage units. They hand-match our NOS Germanium transistors to exacting specifications for pedal-to-pedal consistency, taking the guesswork out of your fuzz purchase, and guaranteeing that your Hoof delivers the same smooth, natural, and harmonically-rich sustain as all your friends’ Hoofs. All your friends have Hoof fuzzes, right? Like its Russian counterpart, the Hoof has controls for fuzz (gain/sustain), level and tone. There's also a fourth control labelled shift. This one changes the frequency response of the tone control. Turn it clockwise for scooping the mids or counterclockwise to enhance or boost the mids. Setting the shift to about noon produces a flat response. Oxygen Music is excited to stock a wide range of EarthQuaker Devices, including the Hoof Fuzz pedal.
