WARM GERMANIUM BOOST, FUZZ,DISTORTION, AND EVERYTHING
As the eastern-most National Park in the United States, The Acadia is the first pedal being released in The Americana Series. This fuzz is a highly tune-able beast with multiple gain stages ready for whatever your amp, guitar, and playing style can throw at it. It can do light, warm grit, subtle, volume-interactive fuzz, and raging sustain depending on settings.

Controls
First row of knobs (Northwestern most): Volume and Gain
Volume controls the master volume of the entire circuit. It gets very loud.
Gain controls the gain level of the first gain-stage in the circuit. You can slam the rest of it or choke it to rely on the controls at the end of the circuit
Second row of knobs: Depth, Bias, Fuzz
Depth controls the frequency being fed into the first gain-stage. CW is beefy, CCW is thin and treble-y
Bias controls the character of the fuzz. CW is squishy, CCW is louder and more open
Fuzz controls the overall amount of fuzz.
Power
It is critical that you use a high quality, isolated and filtered power supplies with The Americana Series. Every modern measure was taken to ensure quiet, recording-worthy noise suppression, but low-quality power and power supplies can inject unwanted noise in these effects. Even though we've designed them to play nicely on a daisy chain, we don't recommend it.
