In a 2021 interview, a relatively overlooked low-wattage practice amp was revealed to be a studio secret weapon for achieving wiry and aggressive tones for guitar, bass, and even drums and vocals. The latest innovation from Acorn Amplifiers, the Solid State, is a full circuit recreation of that now-mythic amp packed into a pedal enclosure and loaded with features.  This is not just a preamp in a pedal box. The Acorn Amps Solid State incorporates the TDA series class-AB power amp device that was utilized in the original amp design, giving you the most authentic reproduction available in a modern pedal format. From spanky, bright cleans to ultra-gain breakup, the Acorn Solid State is a complete guitar amp that fits on your pedalboard in a standard 1590BB enclosure. Two separate output jacks allow the Solid State to be used as either a preamp in your pedal chain or as a standalone 10 watt amplifier plugged directly to a speaker cab; they can even be used together at the same time. Additionally, a toggle switch lets you select between sending the signal out before or after the power amp circuit for maximum tonal versatility.

Send the security guards to bed and turn up to eleven, the Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz isn’t a conspiracy theory, it’s a real fuzz pedal! The Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz is a three transistor silicon fuzz pedal. ‘Erase Footage’ controls the overall signal volume of the effect. ‘Fuzzy Recollection’ controls the amount of fuzz, sweeping between slightly gritty boost all the way to heavy fuzz crunch. The ‘Security Camera’ toggle switch allows you to keep the “N’T” illuminated letters in “DIDN’T” always on or switchable with the bypass of the effect.

The Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz is sonically similar to our now discontinued Bweep Fuzz.

Epstein Didn't Kill Himself Fuzz

The ADHD, or Adaptive Droning Hyperfuzz Device, is a glitch, filter, bit crushing, octave, square wave guitar synth oscillator disguised as a fuzz pedal. An adjustable square wave oscillator accompanies a rambunctious fuzz circuit to create a wildly interactive guitar or bass guitar effect. 8-bit vintage video game tones become searing octave leads with the turn of the five control knobs on board the ADHD and the synth noise oscillator can be controlled using an external expression pedal or tuned by hand with the Frequency knob. The Acorn ADHD is assembled using a voltage controlled timer that blends with the gain control of an LM386 amplifier IC chip to produce interactive and layered bit crushed octave-up-and-down fuzz tones that can be sculpted even further along the frequency bandwidth with the tone/filter control. Transform your guitar into an expansive fuzzy synthesizer with the Acorn Amps ADHD pedal.

ADHD Synth Fuzz

Can you say…Mississippi Marshall!?! A pedal inspired by some of the most iconic rock music from the past four decades. A studio secret weapon for achieving wiry and aggressive tones for guitar, bass, and even drums and vocals. The latest release from Acorn Amplifiers, the Solid State Preamplifier, is your way to recreate those highly sought after sounds. Packed into a slim pedal enclosure and loaded with features, the Solid State Preamplifier features the ‘normal’ and ‘saturated’ channels as foot-switchable tone modes, as well as an added ‘thick’ switch that provides heavy low end and added gain. Also, without the added cost of the power amp circuitry, the Solid State Preamplifier is nearly half of the price of the original Acorn Solid State Amp/Preamp.

Solid State Preamplifier

Detected by its strong magnetic field emanating from the lunar crater Tycho, the TMA-1 was found buried 15 meters beneath the surface of the moon. The moment 9 volts of direct current hit the TMA-1, a powerful signal burst across the universe, searching for other devices of its kind. This is how the new fuzz pedal from Acorn Amplifiers came to be. The TMA-1 fuzz is a four stage transistor fuzz featuring a series of selectable diode clipping options. Germanium diodes, silicon diodes, and a bypass of the clipping diodes are switchable in two separate stages of the fuzz circuit, allowing for a vast array of shapable fuzz tones. A giant glass lens indicator glows red on the face of the pedal to remind humans of the impending singularity that threatens to doom mankind, and also to let you know when the fuzz is engaged.
