EarthQuaker Devices Plumes Jr MOSFET Mod Limited Edition Small Signal Shredder

Limited Edition 1 of 2,000

So now, I guess you could say the Plumes MOSFET Mod offers an original take on our original take on a circuit that’s become very hard to do anything original with…if that makes sense.

We have enough confidence in your perception abilities that we’re gonna go ahead and assume you’ve already taken note of the obvious differences between the Plumes MOSFET Mod and the OG Plumes. For one thing, it’s an even smaller small signal shredder. For another, it’s a limited edition because we told you that in its name.

We also put the term “MOSFET Mod” in the name, and that’s the part we should probably spend a minute explaining. Like the original, the Plumes MOSFET Mod features three clipping modes. Modes 1 and 2 (labeled “L” and “N” respectively) are identical to those found in the good old-fashioned Plumes that the hard-working pedal people at EarthQuaker Devices have been making for years, but Mode 3 (labeled “M”) is where this whole “MOSFET Mod” deal comes into play, offering a commanding, tight and focused overdrive that’s rich in harmonics and delivers an overdriven bite in line with the sound of a modern high gain tube amp.

At the end of the day, the Plumes Jr MOSFET Mod features the same familiar tone controls as the original Plumes. It’s still a safe space, no worries here. It’s useful through its entire range. The low end is big and clear, and the high end is bright and cutting without killing the mids. Just the right amount of tonal tickling to excite those eardrums yet still give that familiar mid-heavy drive.

And it still sounds like a million f**king diamonds!

Each and every Plumes Jr MOSFET Mod is built one at a time by delightful little hands in Akron, Ohio; the charred, black heart in the heart of it all.

Controls:

• Gain: This controls the amount of drive.
• Tone: More bass to the left, more middles in the middle and more treble to the right.
• Level: This controls the output volume.
• Clipping Modes (3-Way Toggle):
• • L: Symmetrical LED clipping – Crunchy, compressed, focused, and articulate
  • N: No clipping – Wide open OpAmp drive for clean boost.
  • M: MOSFET Mod clipping – Harmonically rich and focused with more low end that is dynamically similar to a modern high gain tube amp.
• Switching: This device uses good old fashioned mechanical true bypass switching technology.
• Power: This device requires a standard 9-volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel. DO NOT RUN AT HIGHER VOLTAGES!
