- Chavez Soliz demos the Ages Five-State Overdrive.
Ages is a massively versatile overdrive machine standing at the ready for any amp and pickup combination that is thrown at it. An overdrive with innovative features that can stand on its own and stack well with other drives, Ages is ready to stand its ground and convey an unforgettable sound.
The Ages has a five way rotary knob with five different gain stages and clipping modes. Think of each position as a different “flavor” of the pedal. Fine-tune each of these gain states with the dry knob for a near infinite supply of gain options from punchy transparent to thick and saturated.

I’ve been waiting Ages for this one
nailed it.
Ive tried alot of overdrive pedals that fail cause:
1. Box sound
2. Unpleasent colouring
3. To much low end cut
4. To much treble / harsh sound
4. Gain is sounding mud / no clarity.
This pedal does sound amazing. It has a open sound, the gain structure has a good balance between muddy and clarity. I like the balance between low end, mids and treble. It even has a blend in function, for me thats a gamechanger. Some pedals do have a blend knob but they lack good sound.
I will buy.
*Edit: If this pedal would have midi function it would clean my whole pedalboard...
You guys must be a fantastic company to work for on top of making amazing pedals.
I looked for jobs even down to the "lowest level" of employee and you had nothing to apply for, despite functioning under 100 employees.
"Too many cooks" must be your business model and by god, it works!
If you ever need a PR or CM intern though, I simply have to apply.
Keep up the astounding work!
Plus 1,000 pts for the Sturgill reference
Also killer demo. Pedal sounds tasty
glad to hear some strokes in there 🤘
i bought this pedal and it truly was the missing link for my board... stacks well with my other overdrive especially thanks to the dry knob and also happens to play nice with the octave and/or fuzz circuit of my tsakalis experience. plays nice with my silicon hendrix fuzz face and my Psych 69 BOG fuzz assumingly because they are all silicon (i think). amazing how it can be dirty enough for near-distortion chugging yet at the same time still clear enough to strum the full chord without changing settings. unbelievable, you guys nailed it. after playing this pedal i felt like i had found my sound
Amazing. Thanks so much!
It is difficult to gauge the effect of the pedal when the "clean" amp sound is already distorted.
I think 60 cycle hum just did a complete review of it.
ruclips.net/video/S3mCYLgEVgM/видео.html I got you man.
@@mraycgz thanks man, Ryan's cool
Just four hours ago all music product reviews released their demos of this pedal. Impressive marketing maquinary as well as the self produced video quality.
I have 2 of these. This is the best overdrive I have tried so far. Every single knob is useful. it doesnt mess with my amp tone.
love that! Thanks!
That Supermassive Black Hole reference was sweet as hell 👌🏻 very awesome sounding pedal 🔥
Did I just hear the "Long White Line" opening riff thrown in there? Yes, I certainly did. Awesome!!
bonus points for the strokes
Seriously? Every time I buy MORE of your pedals, you put out a new one and I'm like, "well, shit, I need that one, too." My wallet can't keep doing this, guys.
Agree totally!! Plus my poor pedalboard... it’s too big to start off with and if I’m not careful it’s going to start to look like I’m sponsored by Walrus Audio, without any of the benefits of actually being sponsored by Walrus Audio! 😡😋
That Reptilia riff sold me the pedal
So much for the Palisades I just got on my board. Definitely swapping it out for the Ages and a boost.
Well done boys. This is what I've been waiting for.
Just when I thought I'm max'd out on OD's. I'm a big fan of your products, marketing, product design. Your ARP-87 and Fathom are mainstays on my board. When you bring something out, you got my attention...
I literally just bought their 385 (already being an owner of the Slo) and they bring out this drive pedal! 🤦🏼♂️ To be clear, I have no regrets about buying the 385 - it’s probably the most inspirational drive pedal I ever played (wrote a new riff with it in a guitar store in five minutes some time ago when I was supposed to be demoing a guitar not the pedal! 😝) but now I need this one as well!! 😡🤪
Damn Im definitely going to get this pedal! I love all the pedals Walrus makes!!
Thanks!!
Great audio aside, it's worth point out that your demo videos for your pedals are beautifully shot with tasteful minimalism and style.
Loved the bit of Supermassive Black Hole at the end!
DANG WALRUS!! Woo!! Definitely going to pick this one up! 🙌🏼
Just ordered! Will get it Wednesday! So excited!
Thanks!!
Duuuuudes! This is gonna be a must.
Great pedal, even better playing!
Another masterpiece! 😎
Elephant on the enclosure 10/10
That’s gonna sound killer paired with a Klon copy. Not that it doesn’t already.
Nice rendition of Supermassive Blackhole at the end
This one's gonna age well.
Beautiful
This is beautiful 🙌
it would be awesome if you make a demo like this but for bass,but anyways you guys are awesome, thanks for this amazing pedal
I just got mine yesterday. Already put in 4 hours of twiddling dials and I haven't made it past modes I and II save for a brief rendezvous with III. There are so many usable sounds in this thing. The EQs are somehow both subtle and effective. Like they tend to get rid of or boost exactly what is needed most in each mode. What sorcery is this? BTW, I'm running it into the Nu-X Solid Studio, so basically this is my preamp, and the Solid Studio is the power amp and cabinet sim, then direct to board. I feel like I have an ampless rig that does almost everything from Fender, to Vox, to Marshall, which is basically my dream. I think the addition of a clean boost will complete the picture.
Wow, love that! Thanks so much for the kind words!
YES please!! Game changer!🤤🤤🤤
Thicc sound. Love it.
What are the songs for Mode 2 and 5?
Their on the tip of my tounge but i am blanking right now
Oh that's heavenly.
what's the amp being used here? the amp sound at 0:29 right before the pedal is clicked on sounds pretty fantastic all on it's own
OH HELLLLLLLLLLLLL YEAH
I don’t really get having a dry knob on an overdrive pedal... I’d rather have a mids knob, but the pedal sounds pretty good otherwise.
Works great for bass!
Great Demo! BTW, mode IV on mine gets louder than the other 4 modes which are relatively at the same level output. Is this normal?
Yup! There’s less clipping happening there so adjust output accordingly!
@@walrusaudioeffects Thanks for the quick reply and explanation!
Anyone know what guitar he is using?
It's it just me or are some settings on the mode knob not as loud as others ? Did I get a bad one?
That is expected because different modes offer different clipping, which will change the overall volume. Just adjust the volume knob accordingly to which mode you're in!
Good pedal!!!
Two Sturgill songs, nice.
Does this have an “808” mode?
Winner!!!
Yowza, how many overdrives is too many? (Asking for a friend)
only after this one then its too much.
What model Gibson is this??
Sounds great. What reverb effect is used here please?
None. Just a room mic.
@@walrusaudioeffects Ah ok :D Nice.
Como posso adquirir o pedal?
Time to sell all my overdrive pedals and get this
WANT!!!!
what’s he playing at 4:05 ? super familiar but can’t place it
Queens of the stone AGE - no one knows
Walrus Audio...when will you make a midi version of this?!
The elephant in the room
Whats the first song?
what amp is that?
what's riff on 1:58?
Reptilia // The Strokes
Lemme see if I can cancel all my Joyo purchases & I'll get the AGES!
Whats the riff at 4:15 ?
No one knows - queens of the Stone Age. Probably one of the greatest rock band of all time and a personal favourite
Shout out to the Suhr Classic T.
I know the song @2:08 but I don’t know the naaammmeeeee 😭 please enlighten me! Great vid by the way
Reptilia // The Strokesって下のコメントに書いてありました。多分曲名はこれだと思います。
sahweet!
This or LightSpeed by Greer Amp
Nice Sturgill riffage
Can you guys just sell pedalboards with every one of your pedals on it already
young lust
This looks tasty gents.
Is this true bypass?
yup
finally a new tubescreamer ;-)
lol
But can it Hey Joe?
You guys need to solve the problem with the input, output, and power jack being too close if you try to patch to other pedals, it simply doesn't work!! its amazing that you guys take the time to design a great pedal/circuit but you miss a small and important detail like this!!
I'm finna BUSS out my wallet
that green isn't helping me with my savings...
Am I the only one that doesn't like the artwork/color? Great playing though
most likely. Thats ok though. 😉
Elephant is cool. The color sucks.
sounds chalky and dusty and "inside a box" - i do not like this at all.
