Description:

Razzle Dazzle is a more fanciful name for Dazzle camouflage developed and deployed by the UK and US military in World War  I. In an effort to avoid being targeted for torpedo attacks by German U-boats (submarines) thousands of our ships were painted with a variety of wild stripes to confuse the enemy about identity, direction and speed. We’ve used the dazzle style on this pedal as an homage to the ingenuity of wildlife experts, scientists and graphic artists coordinating with our military to protect our troops at sea. 

 The Vexter Fuzz Factory is identical in construction to the newest hand-painted Fuzz Factories, including a DC power jack and on/off LED indicator. Because it is hand silk-screened instead of hand-painted, we are able to offer it at a somewhat reduced price!This is a five-knob fuzz using two new old-stock sixties germanium transistors. The circuit is not modeled after any classic fuzz design, but should have been around when Leary was still lucid. Although the five knobs are named for the parameters over which they seem to have the most control, please don't hold me to it. They are controls for various operating levels and biases, and basically shape you a personalized fuzz.
