Ages Five-State Overdrive, Craftsman Series

A truly collectible piece for the ultimate Walrus fan, we have collaborated with Simpleton Goods in Oklahoma City, to create the Craftsman Series. Featuring custom laser-engraved art, each pedal is wrapped in high-grade leather that has been hand-cut and hand-stitched by hand one at a time.

The Craftsman Series features Ages Five-State Overdrive, ARP-87 Multi-Function Delay, Deep Six Compressor, Fathom Multi-Function Reverb, Julian Analog Chorus/Vibrato, and Monument Harmonic Tap Tremolo.

Please note that due to the soft nature of leather materials your product may be prone to showing signs of wear such as scuffs or friction marks as you use them. In most cases treating your product with a leather preservative can not only add life to your product but can reverse some surface scuffs. With organic material, not every pedal will look identical but will have its own character and may have small things like spots or wrinkles in the leather itself.

For Ages, overdrive has been the one effect vital for so many. It’s used to charge through front lines of the mix and deliver a clear message that won’t soon be forgotten to its loyal listeners. Ages is a massively versatile overdrive machine standing at the ready for any amp and pickup combination that is thrown at it. An overdrive with innovative features that can stand on its own and stack well with other drives, Ages is ready to stand its ground and convey an unforgettable sound.

The five-position rotary knob offers the following gain states:

I.    Low-gain mode with symmetric silicon soft clipping. Compressed and smooth.
II.   Low-gain mode with symmetric LED soft clipping. Pushed, open, and sparkly. 
III.  High-gain mode with symmetric silicon soft clipping. Increased saturation and tight.
IV.  High-gain mode with symmetric LED soft clipping. Saturated, punchy and big.
V.   High-gain mode with symmetric silicon hard clipping. Heavy compression, thick and chewy.

Think of each position as a different “flavor” of the pedal. Fine-tune each of these gain states with the dry knob for a near infinite supply of gain options.
