Project overview
If you’re looking for a truly unique addition to your gear collection, you may want to check out the Zap Machine by Earthquake Devices. This limited-run pedal was released in 2010, with fewer than 25 made. That’s why, if you go to their website, you will run into a haunting sign:
THIS DEVICE IS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION
But don’t worry; PCB Guitar Mania has got you covered! Why go on a wild goose chase for an almost unobtainable PCB when you can proudly build it yourself?
Introduction
The EQD Limited-Edition Zap Machine is a dual-channel hybrid device made of silicon and germanium that’s super touch-sensitive, meaning it’s really responsive to your playing style.
What’s great about it is that it has a wide range of sounds – you can go from a clean boost to a really intense fuzz just by adjusting the controls. You can even tweak the low-end frequencies to change the character of the sound, so it can behave like an overdrive, distortion, or fuzz box, depending on how you set it up.
Another cool thing is that it responds really well to your picking dynamics – something you don’t always get with other fuzz boxes. And if you need to clean up your sound, just adjust the volume knob on your guitar.
