Germanium Drive - Designed by Wade Chandler Goeke

Chandler Limited, Little Devil and the Little Devil Flame Logo are trademarks of Chandler Limited Inc.

The Little Devil Colored Boost and Germanium Drive pedals, as with most Chandler products, were

designed to ll a need and a sound I had in my own head. I had become increasingly unhappy with

my old amps needing more exibility and that the pedals I had could not do the job. Too many times I

had put a pedal on my $4000 Marshall, that I had saved my whole life to get, only to be disappointed and

have an unusable tone.

Both pedals are designed to take the tone you have and get the most from it. They are not “clean boosts”

by any extent of the imagination but they are not meant to be soggy, “I might use this once every six

months,” type of fuzz pedals either. They are full, colored, Class A tone that are variable from slight fuzz

to tight in your face plexi, from sweet singing Tele to overdriven blues.

In the shop during testing we used a variety of classic and modern amps to assure we delivered in many

situations from country, blues, and classic rock to full on metal and pop-punk.

Here is a list of amps we used to test:

Selmer Stadium (modded by wade)

Selmer TV12

Selmer Bassmaster (early Treble n Bass 50)

Marshall PA100

Marshall 1974x reissue

Vox AC30

Vox AC10

Watkins Dominator

Peavey 5150 (early version)

Mesa Dual Rectier (early version)

Fender Champ (blackface)

Matchless Chieftan

Peavey Classic 20

Laney GH100

Park 100 watt

Each amp takes the pedals in its own way and we found the pedals interacted with in subtle but

interesting fashion, loading each in its own way. On modern high gain amps we found ourselves

using less gain just to be able to kick the pedal on and pickup some of its avor and tight tone.
