Walrus Audio 385
Here’s a little tip: the tube-powered audio sections of old film projectors work amazingly well as guitar amps. That not-so-secret tip lies at the heart of Walrus Audio’s 385 overdrive pedal, a drive stomp whose tone is modeled after the sound of a vintage Bell and Howell 385 Filmosound projector. With dedicated Bass and Treble pots, the 385 gives users free reign over the overdrive’s overall EQ and its unique, dynamic, highly responsive, and amp-like tone.

Walrus Audio Bellwether v2
WIth its all analog bucket brigade device circuitry, the Bellwether delay pedal from Walrus Audio can dish out up to 1000ms of rich, luxuriant delays. Dial in a lush soundscape of warm, saturated delay trails both short and long, or brighten them up for a more pronounced effect. Dedicated Time and Repeat control pots let you go from super fast slap back echoes to dreamy and drawn out shoegaze perfection. V2 removes the output circuit buffer (and the Out 2 jack, as a result), making it a true bypass pedal.

Walrus Audio Contraband
Coat your sound in thick, heavy fuzz for an over the top metallic wall of sound attack with Walrus Audio’s Contraband fuzz stomp.

A unique Thick and Thin toggle lets you shape the fuzz tone depending on your guitar’s pickups—a humbucker may sound better in Thin mode, for example—or just expand the Contraband’s range of tonal possibilities.
