From clean boost to rich overdrive, the Plumes is the perfect update to a classic circuit

A reconfigured tone control that gives a powerful and usable range

Ample clean headroom lets you push your amp into new territories of clarity and drive

Clever 'soft touch' momentary and latching switch operations

Earthquaker devices have never been content with normalcy or straight-up clones. The Plumes Small Signal Shredder is no different. Taking its inspiration from a little green box that 'shouted at tubes', and then deciding there was a much more interesting and exciting way to go about accomplishing that illustrious tone, it's a simply stunning overdrive pedal. In essence, this is a light to medium gain overdrive, but that would be like saying Jimi Hendrix was just a guitarist.

Put this box in front of your amp and listen to it truly open-up, giving it a 'transparent' vibe. But that isn't where this pedal ends. The Plumes includes three different clipping modes with varying amounts of gain, symmetrical LED, asymmetrical silicon, and no diode OpAmp drive which all have wonderfully distinctive characters depending on your vibe.

Full Description

Simple, but not stupid

There is a welcomed simplicity here, but that in no way inhibits what this pedal can do. It can be a beautiful clean boost that will add power to your signal. Just before the breakup, there is a big and bold clean tone which - combined with vintage single coils - will blow you away. You will start making your other overdrives jealous - it's harmonically massive, rich, and crunchy.

Sometimes the originals aren’t better

The asymmetrical clipping mode is the most familiar setting of the famous ‘green box’ but in the Plumes it features some great improvements. First of all, there is a much stronger signal processing which significantly improves clarity, chime, and overall output. Next, the tone control has also been tweaked, making it far more usable across the whole range - you get a tighter bass response that doesn’t impede on the midrange and the trebles. This mode perfects ‘80s classic rock, especially with anything loaded with P.A.Fs.

Perfecting the tap dance

Earthquaker have a very open approach to how their pedals can be used and this is no exception. The Plumes uses a soft touch Flexi-Switch™ which allows for two distinctive modes. A familiar latching switch, so when you stomp on it, it stays on and without the annoying audible click. But it’s the momentary switch that’s clever. You can easily use it to articulate very fast passages by simply keeping your foot down and as soon as you lift your foot, the pedal disengages. So, if you are more experimentally inclined and like to jump around your pedals within a riff or phrase, this makes life a lot easier.
