To avoid damage to the pedal, do not exceed 9V DC, do not use center pin positive adapters, and do not use AC power. Use only a 9V DC power source that is intended for guitar pedals.

This pedal draws approximately 80mA at 9V.
Please note this pedal may ship with a battery. If you are powering with a power supply we recommend removing the battery by taking the backplate off.

Tips ’n’ Tricks

• The mids and bass controls are effectively “off” when in the middle position, as these are referred to as “gyrator” style active eq controls
• The treble is the exact same control as found on the standard Tumnus
• The gain control on the Tumnus does two things at once – as you turn the gain up it turns down a parallel clean blended circuit at the same time. As you turn the gain down it not only turns the gain down but also turns up a parallel clean blended circuit.

Some of Brian’s suggested settings – use these as a starting point to find your perfect tone.
