Now he suggests a higher gain version; so here's the Dragon! Also includes my new 5-knob fuzz format and latching OSC switch.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAimed at that circa 1970 fuzz tone made famous by Hendrix and Gilmour, in which at full guitar volume you get a hot, saturated, sustaining fuzz tone, and with the guitar volume turned down you get more of a gritty overdrive sound. Step on the OSC switch for extra insanity.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Skreddy Pedals™ Dragon Fuzz is made from oldschool silicon transistors, which are doubled in parallel for noise reduction (giving 4 transistors total instead of 2)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extra controls let you emulate different classic fuzz tones from the 60's and early 70's along with improvements for some of the issues those early fuzzes had (noise reduction, adjustable tone, and adjustable input impedance).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis can be a hot, grindy, saturated fuzz or an articulate fuzz, depending on how you set it up.  The bias control is set up to give you just the right classic response at noon, and you can play with it to go harder or softer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo special power requirements, just regular negative ground 9v.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"feature-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eClassic Fuzz Tones\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResponsive and raw just like the earliest units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable input resistance lets it work great with humbuckers and get along with other effects too\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStable at all temperatures but very sensitive to guitar volume knob changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust leave the fuzz knob cranked or backed down a touch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue bypass, LED, standard 9v power jack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOSC switch lets you knock the effect up a notch or go into crazy feedback, depending on where you set its control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description-box note\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in the tall box format like the Echo, with top-side jacks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description-box note\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eControls:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eVOLUME\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGives you a LOT more output volume than most classic fuzzes, with unity gain around noon and plenty of boost beyond that.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBIAS\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLets you go from buzzy and low-fi to clear, louder, and more present.

Noon is the classic setting.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eVOICE\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eLets you go from bright and articulate to smooth and syrupy with that lovely upper-harmonic emphasis you hear in classic fuzz recordings. It's really nothing more than an extra guitar tone control. This fuzz sounds so sweet with the tone rolled down that you will love having this dedicated control right where it's at, freeing up the guitar knobs for all your other applications.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFUZZ\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSets the gain for this whole thing. Most fuzzes of this type sound best with the fuzz turned either all the way up or dialed back just a touch from max (in my opinion).  Gets milder and darker as you turn down.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eHOT\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eAdds either a little or a lot of resistance to the input in order to keep a humbucker pickup from swamping the circuit and causing it to have a gated attack. But it's also useful for helping this fuzz work together with other effects (like to keep a wah pedal from making that siren sound you get from driving it into a vintage-style fuzz, or that extreme, trebly fuzz you get if you use a buffered pedal in front, for example).\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOSC\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eSets the amount of feedback you get when you use the corresponding footswitch, which is latching to let you do other things with your feet while enjoying this effect\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"ataglancedesc\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Skreddy Pedals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40380030255202,"sku":"SKR014","price":295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9057\/files\/skreddydragonfuzz.jpg?v=1687458446","url":"https:\/\/coastsonic.com\/products\/skreddy-pedals-dragon-fuzz","provider":"Coast Sonic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
