Fuzz distortion pedal type (but that I think we all realized it was ^ ^) which has the distinction of offering two fuzz for the price of one: White and Black Fuzz Fuzz.
The all analog and true bypass that does not spoil anything.
- 4 knobs
- 1 switch
- In / output
- Supply by 9V battery or DC Classic
Solid metal housing and easy access to the battery.
UTILIZATION
The usage is reduced to its simplest expression: each channel has a knob fuzz Level and Gain a knob. To mix the two fuzz just turn the knobs of Level 2 to the right. Breeze.
To Gain: the sound varies over the full race of knobs.
I think we can easily and quickly find happiness playing a fuzz or by mixing the two.
SOUND QUALITY
That is the point which interests everyone ^ ^.
White Fuzz: Fuzz very "clean" loaded medium that makes it a very nice saturation playable note for note or chordal.
Black Fuzz: it's already over, to use an image, a slobbering orc with a club in his big pognes. It goes up very high saturation makes it a low blow in the game and it sounded good cradoc while keeping a certain definition.
The mix: It combines the advantages (or disadvantages) of 2 fuzz and it may sound rough but fast determination of the mix is rather simple and can be quickly loaded a sound in low / medium that is going to snore while the strings keeping the foil for the strings.
Good now go to the party angry, because this pedal is not without flaws and unfortunately its biggest is this: to hear the pedal must be mounted near the bottom level. My config: I gain white fuzz and black fuzz in the bottom 3 / 4, the level White 3 / 4 black and 1 / 4 ... and it blows!
Additionally it is powered by Artec Power Brick. Before I fired with Korg or Danelectro and I right in my current config to a dirty his acute parasite!
But despite that, I confess I like the sound I get.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for almost six months on my Hartke GT60 PiggyBack mainly with my Dean ML.
(Yes I have no stuff it would sound terrible and perhaps even better)
It has flaws but it's clear she gives me the sound I was looking for and this for 47 € (Eboule thank you ^ ^)
the +: the sound that puts good boost at low medium and loaded on the low E and sound especially on strings.
the -: the breath because the effect is almost inaudible low level, the specific power supply (say should not exceed 100 Myr if it hisses!).
Difficult in this case to show me objective ... especially since this is my first fuzz. I have 4 Artec pedals and I admit being quite a fan of the brand. I am tempted to put 10 because I really like the sound but for defects, probably prohibitive for others I'll put 8. A demo can be seen on youtube.
