Description
The EarthQuaker Devices Arrows Analog Preamp Booster Pedal V2 is currently retailing at £119.99 and it is preorder. Available to be delivered to you by post direct (some charge may apply). The top pedal chef at Just Pedals thinks that EarthQuaker Devices nailed it here.
The Arrows pedal is a simple all-analogue preamp booster pedal that's been designed to work with other dirt pedals to give them another channel of dirt. The intention was to brighten the sound of dark and muddy sounding humbucker pickups.
The Arrows V2 has had a few minor tweaks and upgrades that make the pedal more useable than ever before. The V2 pedal boosts the mid-range and tightens up low-end better than before. It's also got silent soft-touch switching meaning you won't get any nasty pops or noises from the switch going through to the amp. It also has the standard top-mounted jacks for easy pedal board integration.
The single knob approach to this pedal means it's easy to dial dirt onto your signal. Turning the knob up will increase gain, tighten up the low-end and allow your sustain to bloom with excellent harmonic response.
Here's what EarthQuaker Devices say about the Arrows V2
Preamp Booster
The Arrows V2 is an all-discrete tone sculpting preamp booster. It was designed with the intention of adding an additional channel of gain to all your dirt pedals as well as brightening up neck pickups.
• Preamp Booster pedal – Built on all-discrete analog circuitry
• Designed to be stacked; Adds additional gain channel to dirt pedals
• Dirt-simple to use – One knob to rule them all!
• Brightens dark sounding neck pickups
• Boosts midrange and tightens up low-end
• True bypass – Silent soft-touch switching
• New enclosure w. Top-mounted jacks – for effortless pedalboard implementation
The Arrows V2 boosts midrange, tightens up the low end and makes the top end shine while adding some push to drive your dirt into blooming sustain with excellent harmonics.
Its simple interface is no nonsense; a single control that will either boost or cut your signal. While the new V2 enclosure, with its top-mounted jacks, make fitting the pedal even into the most crowded pedal board a breeze.
Use the Arrows V2 to remove the muck from bass heavy fuzz pedals, push light overdrives into higher gains than you thought possible or even on its own to make your signal really pop with more pizazz.

Analog effects pedals use traditional circuitry, typically built with transistors, capacitors, and resistors, to shape and modify a guitar’s signal without digital processing. Known for their warm, natural, and organic sound, analog pedals are favoured by many musicians for their rich harmonic response and smooth dynamic range. Unlike digital pedals, which process audio using algorithms, analog pedals maintain a continuous signal flow, preserving the instrument’s natural character.
Classic analog effects include overdrive, fuzz, phaser, chorus, and delay pedals, with legendary models like the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff, MXR Phase 90, and Boss DM-2 Delay standing the test of time. While digital pedals offer versatility and precision, analog pedals are prized for their warmth and simplicity, making them a staple in many guitarists’ pedalboards.
A booster is an effects pedal used by guitarists to increase the overall level or volume of their signal, often to enhance certain aspects of their tone or to push an amplifier into overdrive.
By amplifying the guitar’s signal, a booster can make solos stand out more prominently in a mix, or drive an amp harder for a more aggressive sound.
Boosters come in various forms, including clean boosters, which simply raise the volume without altering the tone, and overdrive or distortion boosters, which add some level of grit and warmth.
Some booster pedals also feature tone controls to adjust the EQ, allowing players to shape the frequency response and fine-tune their sound.
They are a versatile tool for achieving greater dynamic range and tonal flexibility in both live performances and studio recordings.

A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.
This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.
Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
Once you buy one, you can’t stop and then you have to sell them and buy more.
A preamp pedal boosts the guitar signal to line level before it reaches an amplifier, shaping the tone and adding warmth, character, or gain. Preamp pedals can be used to simulate the sound of an amplifier’s preamp stage, providing overdrive, distortion, or clean tone shaping. They can also be used to drive amplifiers harder or to add tonal colour and EQ adjustments. Some preamp pedals are designed to mimic classic amp sounds, such as those from Fender, Marshall, or Vox, while others offer more modern, transparent tones. Well-known preamp pedals include the Tech 21 SansAmp, Electro-Harmonix Soul Food, and MXR M81 Bass Preamp, making them a useful tool for tone shaping in both live performances and studio work.
This product is available to Pre Order.
V2 stands for Version 2, meaning an updated or improved version of an existing pedal. Manufacturers release V2 models when they refine the circuit, add new features, improve build quality, or enhance performance based on user feedback.
For example, the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi V2 had circuit changes compared to the original, and Strymon released V2 versions of their pedals with MIDI capabilities and upgraded DSP.If
you’re looking at a pedal labeled V2, it means it’s a newer revision with some level of improvement over the first version.
