Battering Ram
The Wounded Paw Effects Battering Ram is a ferocious fuzz/overdrive pedal that's sure to transform your guitar tone into a roaring, distorted beast. Designed by the sonic alchemists at Wounded Paw, this pedal packs a wallop that's equal parts vintage grit and modern attitude. At its core, the Battering Ram delivers a thick, creamy fuzz that can range from smooth and singing to utterly savage, depending on how you dial it in. But this is no one-trick pony - twist the "Drive" knob and you'll unlock a rich, harmonically-complex overdrive that'll push your amp into glorious saturation. The "Tone" control allows you to scoop out mids for a more aggressive, scooped sound or dial in a fuller, more rounded tone. What really sets the Battering Ram apart is its unique "Crush" control, which acts like a dynamic compression circuit. Crank it up and you'll get a relentless, in-your-face sustain that's perfect for lead lines and soaring solos. Backed off, it provides a more touch-sensitive response that's great for rhythm work. Guitarists in the know have been spotted using the Battering Ram, including Jack White, who has been seen wielding it onstage with The White Stripes. If you're after a fuzz/overdrive pedal with serious character and versatility, the Wounded Paw Effects Battering Ram is well worth a closer look.
