JRS: Acadia
Silicon overdrive-to-fuzz with voltage-starve Bias control for gated/velcro tones. Five knobs, huge range.
Spruce Effects is a Bay Area husband-and-wife team (Brian and Katie) who custom design everything in-house and hand-wire in California using NOS and vintage parts.
The JRS Acadia is a Swiss army knife drive pedal covering articulate overdrive through full walls of fuzz. The Gain knob adds ~30dB of clean flat gain to the first stage, shaping how the fuzz behaves. The Bias control is a classic voltage reducer: clockwise gets spitty and gated, counterclockwise opens up louder and more articulate. Depth controls the frequency feeding the first gain stage.
True bypass, 1590BBS enclosure, 9V DC center-negative. Part of the Junior Ranger Series.
