EARTHQUAKER DEVICES PLUMES overdriveThe Plumes is a low to medium gain overdrive based on the trusty lime green overdrive that has been an industry staple since its inception. This is the kind of overdrive that works in conjunction with a good valve amp to create the warm saturation people like to call transparent".

The Plumes is a low to medium gain overdrive based on the trusty lime-green overdrive that has been an industry staple since its inception. This is the kind of overdrive that works in conjunction with a good valve amp to create the warm saturation people like to call transparent". While this circuit has been the foundation of countless other overdrives available today, we feel the Plumes has a few twists and turns to make it unique enough to stand out. The Plumes does away with the trusted JRC4558 OpAmp and the BJT buffers and replaces them with low noise JFET OpAmps for a more robust and precise signal with a significantly lower noise floor. The 9v power input is internally converted to +/- 9v for more headroom and a clarity that is almost three-dimensional. We've raised the input impedance to a whopping 10 megaohms for a stronger signal with more clarity and chime. We've also adjusted the cutoff of the tone control to deliver a more useful range of travel with more booming bass on the low end without sacrificing the cutting midrange and bright top end. Last, but certainly not least, the Plumes offers three different clipping options to ensure that it will work with a wide variety of gear and playing styles. Mode 1 is symmetrical clipping utilizing a pair of light emitting diodes. This is the crunchiest setting the Plumes has to offer. When played through a clean amp, it'll deliver a reasonable facsimile of that classic crunchy valve amp tone. Mode 2 is clean boost mode. This eliminates the soft clipping diodes altogether and leaves you with straight OpAmp drive. This is perfect for pushing your clean tone out in front or driving the preamp of an already overdriven amp into tasteful breakup territory. Mode 3 is an asymmetrical silicon diode arrangement similar to the stock screamer but with more output and clean clarity, the tone some people describe as "transparent". The Plumes features EarthQuaker Devices relay-based "soft touch" Flexi-Switch™ Technology for both momentary and latching footswitch operation as well as a very low 25mA current draw. "¢ Unique approach to a classic tube-like overdrive circuit offering more headroom, lower noise and far better signal integrity. "¢ Features 3 different clipping options: symmetrical LED, asymmetrical silicon, and no diode OpAmp drive. "¢ Reimagined tone control to sculpt low end, clear top end, and focused midrange. "¢ True bypass. "¢ Silent relay-based switching. "¢ Features EarthQuaker Devices' proprietary Flexi-Switch™ Technology. "¢ All-analog signal path. "¢ Lifetime guarantee. "¢ Current Draw: 25 mA. "¢ Input impedance: 10 MΩ. "¢ Output impedance: 100 Ω. "¢ 100% hand-built in the USA."Shipping Notes

Black mens coat
I didn't expect such good quality from such an inexpensive black coat, stylish, neat, looks expensive, none of my friends believed that I bought it so cheaply! No pellets appeared after a year and a half of use

Has shoulder pads.
The jacket has shoulder pads that don't necessarily show on the image in the purchase area. Pretty pronounced so if that's not your thing definitely stay away. Got lucky and it doesn't look too bad on me but it took so long to receive the package I don't feel like going through the refund process so I'm dealing with it. Quality is great tho

Nice Coat Not So Great Packaging
Size: X-Small, Color: A-grey
Nice coat but packaging needs to be improved. It arrived not properly folded and as a result it was completely wrinkled. Took some work to iron so it looked as advertised. Packaging for such things has to be reviewed.
