Published on 01/09/14 at 08:16This is a pedal of a real fuzz simplicity and any analog and very robust. The beautiful German manufacturing license in China!
UTILIZATION
The configuration is very simple:
a volume knob, a gain and a tone, a true bypass switch very effective, an instrument input and an output and a socket for 9V supply. It can also be fed by a 9V battery that fits under the pedal and is accessible by unscrewing the 4 screws that hold the bottom plate.
SOUND QUALITY
Everything is done very well in this little pedal.
It hides well his game and like all fuzz should spend some time to grind to genuinely realize its resources. For my part I play with a Gibson SG 57 and mounted with a Marshall Class 5 which I changed the bowl for a much clearer than the original Jensen C10Q.
The settings are effective, their race is smooth and clean and very responsive to changes.
The fuzz is issued more than convincing, it is really in the spirit "vintage", the cross a fuzz face and a Mosrite could I afford.
In the first third of the gain we get a clear sound slightly dirty, well defined that can carve through the tone knob.
A half we feel the biting fuzz without being bitter. Agreements go well without drafts.
Beyond it really roars but knows how to stay clean in the definition which is not always the case for all the fuzz. This typical mushy fuzz but still in the reservoir is obtained.
Where it is great it is when you go a little amp gain for the cruncher. It totally transformed and I really love that sound! I found the perfect rock record in the psyche that is found in the top albums of Iron Butterfly, Wicked Lady or even the Stooges or more récement Kadavar.
OVERALL OPINION
I tested many fuzz, I counted more. The last one I owned was the JMI Tonebender MKIII. Not totally rotten fuzz as you tell me ... But even then I'm not rediscovered. I hesitated with the Voodoo Lab Superfuzz but it was not that. I almost fall for the Catalinbread Merkin before stumble upon it I first tried without much conviction. I did not want to repeat the same mistakes and buy LA vintage pedal handmade and rolled under the armpits so I became more reasonable, I was patient, I tested a lot and I finally found my happiness ! Finally I would not be against a small time either Mosrite!
In summary a great success, not expensive at all and sounds great!
