Animals Pedal


We love a good funk machine ’round here, and today’s pedal brings all the funky tones you need, in a simple package. Animals Pedal continues their steak of long and quirky pedals names with the Double Spy Mission is Impossible Filter, an auto-wah / envelope filter that suits the needs of any player. A staple for guitar and bass alike, this effect harkens back to the sounds of the ’70s, ushering in a new era of tonal...

Only one knob on today’s pedal, you say? How boring… Well, sometimes, that’s all you need to make a bold and loud musical statement. We’re taking a look at the Animals Pedal Dawn Ocean Meditation Boost, a clean booster that reproduces numerous vintage tones and powerful, classic style boosting to your signal… A collaboration with Matthew Holl from Wren and Cuff, the Dawn Ocean raises your...

The Animals Pedal lineup (aka Ninevolt Pedals) has been one of our favorites for years – affordable, excellent quality and a wide range of effects. We love when they send us another new pedal to check out, and today’s gem is no different than usual. The Diamond Peak Hybrid Overdrive takes everything you know and love about high-output British amplifiers from the 60’s and 70’s and puts it into a box that will...

There have been a lot of Tone Bender-ish pedals coming through the shop as of late, and we couldn’t be happier about it. We’ve got another one for you today, this time coming from our friends at Animals Pedal. The Sunday Afternoon Is Infinity Bender, despite having a wildly long and potentially confusing moniker, is a fairly simple and straightforward fuzz. That said, there’s still plenty here to investigate. Another...

Animals Pedal, formerly Ninevolt Pedals, has been producing some really great gear over the last couple of years. Affordable, simple and with each one assigned a name wackier than the previous, these effects are made really well and sound just fantastic. Their latest offering is what we’re going to check out today – the Vintage Van Driving is Very Fun Overdrive (say that three times fast). This orange gem brings a vintage...

Today we’ve got another collaboration pedal from some friends in Japan and a pedal builder in Nevada, one with a heap of fuzz tones, as well as some overdrive and distortion thrown in just because. The Rover Fuzz comes to us from Animals Pedal, via Skreddy Pedals, easily creating big, fat and tone-filled walls of sound. Touch-sensitive and stable in any temperature, this pedal is gonna shock and surprise you, we promise…...

We’ve had a blast over the years reviewing effects pedals from Ninevolt Pedals/Animals Pedal, and today we’re venturing for the first time into acoustic territory from these guys. The Firewood Acoustic D.I. is an active D.I. that fits in both live stages and recording studios alike, using analog and discrete circuits and able to output to a mixer or an amplifier without missing delicate expressions. This simple pedal...

Today, we’ve got the next new pedal in the Animals Pedal lineup, and while it’s not reinventing the effects pedal wheel, the Major Overdrive is a solid choice for dirtying up your tone. With a simple control section and an output of tasty overdriven tones, this little brown box traveled to us all the way from Japan, and was worth the wait. Designed by Skreddy Pedals and including classic graphic artwork and bold buttons...

After we brought you our review of the first pedal in the Animals Pedal lineup, the Rust Rod Fuzz, we now bring you the second out of five total pedals.

Tap into your inner Jimi with the click of a button, create sounds from the Summer of Love and even morph your sound to fit...

The Rust Rod Fuzz from Animals Pedal is the first of 5 pedals from this company that we will be reviewing and demoing, and this one started off the tour with a bang! Designed by Skreddy Pedals, this...
