The Acapulco Gold is a dirt-simple distortion Device modeled after the sound of a cranked vintage Model T amplifier, 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 fingertips. Want less gain? Turn down your guitar’s volume knob. Need a darker rhythm tone? Roll back your guitar’s tone control. Easy, right?

Been looking for a very specific pedal for some time and found it at Ahead. I had a few questions that were answered very promptly. Postage to the UK took only a few days (under a week) … More and the item came very securily packaged and at a very resonable postage cost.Would not hesitate to buy from Ahead again. 5 Star.

Ordered a beautiful Sandberg bass a couple of months ago, which I have been enjoying playing a lot. Stephanos was very accommodating with the shipping, and most importantly, the bass … More arrived to Finland in great condition. They even took effort in sending me a certificate of authenticity which apparently was left out of the original package (I didn't even realize it was missing before getting it in the mail a week later). Can't recommend them enough, and wish them all the best in the future.

Switching
This device is true bypass and uses electronic relay-based switching. Audio will not pass without power.

Power
This device takes a standard 9 volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel. We always recommend pedal-specific, 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 specific power supplies do not filter dirty power as well and let through unwanted noise. DO NOT RUN AT HIGHER VOLTAGES!
