Hailing from Japan, Animals Pedals boast some of the quirkiest effects in the business! Featuring custom illustrated graphics and some truly memorable product names, the Animals Pedals range has something for everyone. Better still, Animals Pedals are solidly built using quality components, all the while remaining at a price point that is accessible to the average musician.

The Animals Pedals Surfing Bear Overdrive is a modern take on the classic “808” overdrive pedal, boasting an upgrade circuit for a wider range of applications. Featuring a wide dynamic range with incredible clarity and responsiveness, the Surfing Bear works equally well through a clean amp as it does tightening up an already overdriven amp.

With controls for Volume, Gain and Tone, the Surfing Bear has plenty to offer in terms of tone tweaking. Set the Gain knob low and you’ve got a great sounding clean boost, but at higher settings, you’ve got a fantastic rhythm crunch sound with plenty of punch! The Tone knob can be used to accentuate the high frequencies, effectively working as a treble booster. The possibilities are endless! With true-bypass switching, you can rest easy in the knowledge that your dry signal will not be affected when the pedal is bypassed!

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

They respond dynamically to your playing, offering everything from a light bluesy crunch to full, saturated rock tones. Perfect for boosting solos or shaping your core sound, an overdrive pedal brings character and life to any setup. Whether you prefer vintage smoothness or modern bite, these pedals are essential for players who want expressive, touch-sensitive drive with plenty of personality.. Pedals — Pedals are compact effects units placed between a guitar and an amplifier to shape, enhance, or transform your sound. They cover everything from drive and distortion to modulation, delay, reverb, and dynamics, allowing players to build a personalised tone and respond creatively to different musical styles and playing situations..
