Wild Dog Emu Stomp Box – Ergonomic Tasmanian Blackwood Stomper

The Wild Dog Emu is a thoughtfully designed stomp box created with the smaller-footed player in mind – without sacrificing any of the big, fat tone Wild Dog is famous for. Much like the larger Yowie model, the Emu delivers a massive low-end thump, but in a slightly more compact footprint that’s ideal for players who prefer a more manageable size on their pedalboard or stage setup.

Manufactured from solid Tasmanian Blackwood timber, both the body and tone bar provide a warm, punchy response with heaps of bottom end. The Emu has a distinctive, natural look thanks to the beautiful Blackwood grain, complemented by a laser-etched Wild Dog face plate that gives it a professional boutique finish. Every stomp produces a strong, percussive “kick drum” style sound that fits perfectly under acoustic guitars, vocals and live looping setups.

One of the standout features of the Emu is its fatigue-reducing rolled heel design. Instead of having to constantly lift your foot, the rolled heel allows your foot to pivot smoothly, significantly reducing tapping effort over long sets. Combined with the raised tone bar, this design provides an instant “sweet spot” for a deep, warm tone and makes it easier to lock into a comfortable, consistent groove. With heel and toe sound variation, you can dial in different textures and accents as you play.

The Emu’s large, stable platform and non-slip rubber feet help keep the stomp box firmly in place on stage floors, rugs and pavement, making it ideal for gigging musicians and buskers. Each unit is handmade in Australia with close attention to detail, and comes with a neoprene protective sock to keep it safe between gigs around the Gold Coast QLD and across Australia.

Whether you’re a singer-songwriter, acoustic soloist, worship musician or street performer, the Wild Dog Emu is a smart choice if you want a comfortable, ergonomic stomp box that still delivers massive, stage-ready thump.
