This EarthQuaker Devices Limited Edition Blackout Gary operates identically to the mainline production Gary Automatic Pulse Width Modulation Fuzz. All changes are aesthetic.

Straight from the twisted minds of EQD and one of today's most necessary rock bands, Idles, comes the EarthQuaker Devices Gary! We know what you're thinking, "Gary? Who's Gary?" Who is Gary, indeed. Gary is a thunderous collaboration between EQD and Lee Kiernan of Idles to craft an outrageously powerful and quirky drive pedal fitted for a touring rock band with a massive sound. Wild and raucous, Gary's got it all!

The EQD Gary started out as a fairly simple request by Lee Kiernan to create a compact version of the EarthQuaker Gray Channel overdrive – a mainstay on Lee's board and a huge part of his main drive tone. This all worked out quite well, but in adventurous EQD spirit, if it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing! Gary became something else entirely from this juncture with the addition of a second channel. What this all means? Some really fashionable dirt and fuzz.

Onboard Gary, you'll find two footswitches and four dials to control the independent dirt channels. To one side, EarthQuaker Devices built in their Gray Channel overdrive. This Gray Channel recreation is designed with Kiernan's favorite settings built in – diodes removed for a full-bodied opamp distortion. The two dials on this side of the pedal include Go and That's It. With Go, the opamp distortion can be set at a variety of drive ranges from a full-range clean boost to a natural distortion. This works in conjunction with the That's It dial that sets the master volume for the drive, making for great interactivity between the two dials.

For his wild side, Gary consists of a destructive and dynamic fuzz that is highly interactive and pretty dominating, so let's talk about it! Gary's right fuzz side features an envelope-controlled variable pulse width and buckets of volume. What this means is that Gary's right side turns the signal into a square wave, allowing you to adjust the duty cycle through your picking dynamics. On this side, we have Yes! and Oosh. Oosh controls the overall output for the this side. Yes! controls the sensitivity of this envelope, spanning from an unaltered, heavy square wave fuzz tone at its absolute minimum and a nasally, narrow, and biting buzz at its maximum. Gary runs the gamut for reaching fuzz-through-a-phase-shifter-type sounds at his craziest, so play boldly and don't look back!

Gary comes equipped with an expression connection that allows for manually adjusting his fuzz's envelope duty cycle in real time. This can be overridden by simply using a dummy cable to defeat the envelope altogether and setting the duty cycle with Yes! to find your own perfect fuzz mix. Gary is fitted with EQD's Flexi-Switch technology that easily allows for true bypass momentary and latching style switching.

With Gary, we're made witnesses to some debaucherously dirty drive. Take up arms with this EQD special and make good friends with Gary. He's a charmer!

Too big. If using during snow plowing they are a burden due to need to take hands off controls, and shift from forward to reverse. Might be okay if just riding around on trails, etc.

Good quality, not great on clutch
The quality of these is very good. They break the wind very well. Too well, actually. On my bike when going above 60 MPH they press hard enough on the clutch to be a problem. I'm sure I'll still use them but they won't be of any value on the interstate. It's possible to hold the clutch while using them but, for me at least, I don't have the strength to do it for my 45 minute commute. Unfortunately, the openings seem to fold up making it difficult to get gloved hands into them quickly, which is my reason for subtracting a star.

I installed this on an e46 325ix sedan, they only worked, one of them is just a little loose. I don't know how long they last, because every time I open the bonnet, the lever bothers me a little?
