EarthQuaker Devices Plumes Jr MOSFET Mod Small Signal Shredder Overdrive Pedal - Green

Familiar midrange bite takes on a tighter edge with the EarthQuaker Devices Plumes Jr MOSFET Mod small signal shredder overdrive pedal. This limited-edition variation on the original Plumes circuit retains its distinctive drive characteristics while introducing a new MOSFET clipping voice. With three selectable modes and straightforward Level, Gain and Tone controls, the Plumes Jr moves between the familiar sounds of the original and a more aggressive, harmonically rich response. The MOSFET setting delivers focused overdrive inspired by the bite of a modern high-gain tube amp, while the compact enclosure takes up less room on a pedalboard than the original Plumes. Built individually in Akron, Ohio, the Plumes Jr MOSFET Mod brings a new clipping option to a familiar overdrive design.

Three Modes Offer LED Crunch, Clean Boost and MOSFET Drive

The three-way selector provides access to the original Plumes' first two clipping modes alongside the new MOSFET setting. Mode L retains the original's LED clipping response, while mode N provides its unclipped boost voice. Switching to mode M introduces MOSFET clipping, producing tighter, more focused overdrive with rich harmonics and the bite of a modern high-gain tube amp. These contrasting modes allow players to explore different gain structures, from boosting an amplifier to adding more pronounced drive and saturation. The MOSFET setting is the defining addition, expanding the Plumes circuit's tonal range without replacing the two familiar modes.

Level, Gain and Tone Offer Flexible Sound Shaping

Despite its updated clipping options, the Plumes Jr retains the familiar Level, Gain and Tone controls of the original Plumes. Gain adjusts the amount of drive, while Level sets the pedal's output relative to the rest of the signal chain. The Tone control offers a broad adjustment range, allowing players to emphasize the pedal's substantial, clear low end or bring forward its bright, cutting highs. Throughout that range, the midrange remains prominent, preserving a recognizable characteristic of the Plumes sound. Together, these controls provide straightforward ways to shape the pedal's response for rhythm playing, lead parts and different amplifier setups.

Compact Construction Brings Distinctive Drive to Your Pedalboard

The smaller enclosure makes the Plumes Jr a practical choice for pedalboards where space is limited, offering three selectable clipping voices in a more compact format than the original Plumes. Each limited-edition pedal is built individually in Akron, Ohio, continuing EarthQuaker Devices' hands-on approach to manufacturing. The familiar three-knob layout keeps operation straightforward, while the MOSFET setting adds a tighter, more harmonically rich drive option alongside the original circuit's two established modes. For guitarists looking to expand their overdrive sounds without significantly expanding their pedalboard footprint, the EarthQuaker Devices Plumes Jr MOSFET overdrive pedal offers a distinctive variation on the Plumes design.
