If you're a dedicated fan of our EarthQuaking Devices (we love ya!), you may wonder what the difference is between the old, discontinued Speaker Cranker and the brand new Special Cranker overdrive? Well, grab a snack, and open your eyes and ears as EQD founder and lead designer Jamie Stillman talks about the inspiration behind the new deluxe and more versatile version of this old EQD favorite.
Enjoy as Jamie highlights the crucial differences between the two pedals, including the new Level and Tone controls and the clipping diode switch that gives you two drives in one while still retaining the inherent sonic awesomeness of your chosen amp. We've even got a couple of rare guest testimonials from veteran EQD employees and musicians Mike Tolan and Jeff France. Hi guys!
If you're looking for more nuts and bolts factoids, turn up your devices and listen as Jamie demos the Special Cranker with a variety of pickups and guitars to show how the pedal augments the natural characteristics of these beloved instruments and their traditional pickup configurations.
So sit back and let Jamie tell you why this all-discrete analog distortion enhancement device is an overdrive you can trust.
