I have always felt that to create amazing guitar effects, you must draw from the sounds and styles that move you the most. 

Authentic, passionate love of a sound results in amazing design.

Epiphanous is the embodiment of this design philosophy. My desert island drive.

Inspired at age 14 to pick up the guitar by Jimmy Page’s tonal wizardry in Led Zeppelin, I have poured everything I know into crafting the ultimate classic rock overdrive: Epiphanous.

Offering a beautiful, uncompressed, transparent Plexi-esque overdrive, Epiphanous offers the ultimate, all analog foundation drive. As sound that will inspire you to play.

Two is better than One

Epiphanous incorporates two overdrives in one unit. Switching the “Gain” toggle into the down position engages the second overdrive in series with the first. Each overdrive has been meticulously designed to work perfectly and inspiringly with each other.

More than Tone Controls

The Bite and Body are more than just bass and treble controls. I designed each of these dials to manipulate the critical overdrive frequencies. The Body is exactly as you would expect – the low end body of the overdrive tone. Likewise, Bite sets the amount of upper frequency attack from the overdrive.

You or I

The EQ toggle allows you to either engage the Body and Bite controls (toggle down) or, utilize a tonal preset crafted by me, lovingly referred to as “Heaven”.

Plays Well with Others

I designed this overdrive to work incredibly well with other pedals, particularly fuzz pedals or other overdrives.

Redefining Reliability

From the premium components used, to the way in which the pedal is constructed. A pedal that will never need to go near a repair shop. Unsurpassed reliability.

With a lifetime guarantee upon registering your pedal.

How do we achieve that reliability?

-       100,000 Cycle, True Bypass Footswitch

Most stop box footswitches are guaranteed for a lifecycle of between 20,000 and 30,00 cycles. The switch we use in the Epiphanous is guaranteed for over 100,000 cycles.

-       Neutrik Sockets

Stand alone, ultra-premium Neutrik jack sockets ensure a lifetime of joyful, trouble-free connection.

-       Hand-wired sockets and footswitch

Whereas most pedals use PCB mounted jacks (and some even mount the footswitch on the same PCB), the Epiphanous hand wires the footswitch board, DC sockets and jack sockets.

Whilst being a lot more labor intensive in construction, this method guarantees substantially greater pedal durability and strength than the cheaper, and more prone to failure “all mounted on one PCB” approach

I hate the concept of “planned obsolescence”. The idea that a product is only intended to last a few years in order to ensure future purchases.

Every pedal in the Apothecary series is designed as the antithesis to that notion.

I designed the Apothecary series to last a lifetime. That’s why, when you register your pedal, the electronics and mechanisms are guaranteed for a lifetime of use.

I wanted to design a pedal that you can bequeath to your kids. 

So I did. 

I personally test and hand sign every Epiphanous that leaves our workshop.

Housed in a diecast enclosure featuring gorgeous, machined aluminum knobs, unique to the Apothecary series, inspiring, vivid artwork and topped off with a beautiful LED, color matched to the pedals color scheme.

 Made with enormous love in New Zealand.
