<<< Tech Specs >>>
• Current Draw: 18mA
• This device can be powered by a 9v battery or a standard 9-volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm
negative center barrel. We always recommend pedal-specic, transformer-isolated wall-wart
power supplies or multiple isolated-output supplies. Pedals will make extra noise if there is
ripple or unclean power. Switching-type power supplies, daisy chains and non-pedal specic
power supplies do not lter dirty power as well and let through unwanted noise. DO NOT RUN
AT HIGHER VOLTAGES!

This device has a limited lifetime warranty. If it breaks, we will x it. Should you encounter any

Big Knob: The big knob sets the output level, sometimes known as Volume. PLEASE BE
CAREFUL, the Acapulco Gold is extremely loud!
Welcome to your new Acapulco Gold™ Power Amp Distortion! The Acapulco Gold is a dirt-
simple distortion Device modeled after the sound of a cranked vintage Model T amplier,
bringing the openness, clarity, and crunch that only a dimed tube amp can provide, at a fraction
of the size, and without expensive maintenance costs!
Since tone is in the hands, we decided to keep the controls of the Acapulco Gold as simple
as possible. The footswitch turns the pedal on and off, and the giant knob controls the output
volume. That’s it. The rest is at your ngertips. Want less gain? Turn down your guitar’s volume
knob. Need a darker rhythm tone? Roll back your guitar’s tone control. Easy, right?
With your guitar’s volume all the way up, the Acapulco Gold roars like a wide-open Model T on
the verge of explosion. At just-barely-backed-off, the Gold becomes a raunchy overdrive. At
minimum guitar volume settings, the Acapulco Gold delivers a hazy, Nashville-sounding spank
to your tone.
How about this? If your guitar has separate volume and tone controls for each pickup and a
three-way selector switch, this little one-knob banger becomes a three-channel tone monster at
the ick of your wrist!
Each Acapulco Gold is made part-by-part, wire-by-wire, giant knob-by-giant knob with real, live
humanimal hands in our gilded manufactory located in gray olde Akron, Ohio USA.
