EarthQuaker Devices Acapulco Gold Pedal V2
The EQD Acapulco Gold V2 is a fire-breathing distortion pedal that packs the raw power and sound of a cranked vintage amp into a simple, one-knob design. Whether you want roaring rock tones or gritty blues overdrive, this little box delivers big sound with no fuss. Just turn the knob and let your guitar do the rest!
Inspired by the massive tone of the Sunn Model T, this pedal brings that legendary amp's thick, saturated distortion to your pedalboard - without the need for ear-shattering volume or expensive maintenance. It reacts to your guitar's volume and tone controls like a real tube amp, giving you a wide range of sounds from subtle grit to full-on fuzzed-out chaos. Simple, powerful, and endlessly fun, the Acapulco Gold v2 is a must-have for players who love a big, unapologetic tone.
EarthQuaker Devices Acapulco Gold Review
Modeled after the legendary Sunn Model T amp, the EarthQuaker Acapulco Gold captures the magic of a maxed-out tube head in a pedal-sized package. Its single big knob controls volume, but your guitar's tone and volume knobs unlock a surprising range of sounds—from a warm, spanky twang to a full-throttle wall of distortion. The latest version also features silent, relay-based switching for smooth operation on stage and in the studio.
Unlike traditional distortion pedals that rely on gain and EQ controls, the Acapulco Gold v2 responds dynamically to your playing and guitar settings, just like a real tube amp. Roll back your volume for a gritty, bluesy drive, or crank it up for pure sonic mayhem. It's loud, it's raw, and it delivers a harmonically rich tone that cuts through any mix. Whether you need vintage crunch or modern sludge, this pedal brings the heat.
