Seriously, normal \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003evolume setting is at about 10% of its full output potential. Two gain\/tone controls “Hurt” and “Pain” give a variety of tone textures and a feedback noise loop can be adjusted to add a very gritty almost 8-bit sound or a squelching scream. (Great for droning or well crafted solos and recording). The extra stomp switch adds 2 more additional gain stages and a boost of high end to the sound. Best of all the distortion oscillates when notes are held adding a new level of expression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrief history\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom an old news reel‭:‬\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‮…‬Once only rumored to have existed‭, ‬archeologists recently unearthed the original‭ ‬\u003cbr\u003eElectron Fuzz at the site of the worlds worst nuclear disaster‭. ‬\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn December 23‭, ‬1949‭ ‬nuclear engineers in charge of reactor safety were distracted when one of them built a guitar pedal from parts of the main reactor control panel‭. ‬This guitar pedal caused massive distortion‭. …‬and later lead to massive unimaginable destruction‭. ‬\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e‭”‬We simply got distracted while playing guitar and forget what we were supposed to be doing‭.”‬\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe only survivor was also quoted saying‭ “‬The sound was worth it‭”.‬\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince then‭, ‬this device lay buried under a pile of rubble and nuclear fallout‭. ‬After years of pain staking hard work the Electron Fuzz has been recovered and fully restored‭. ‬\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe can finally hear the sound that caused that unforgettable massive apocalyptic day of destruction‭.‬\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Electron Fuzz is a brutal distortion pedal that uses parasitic frequency oscillation to create changing overtones when notes‭ ‬are played and held‭. ‬With the x1000‭ ‬gain boost it can be pushed well into unusable ranges and can get incredibly loud‭. ‬An adjustable feedback loop can be turned on and off for additional noise mangling‭. ‬Reducing output gain also increases saturation‭, ‬smoothing out harsher frequencies‭. ‬It features a low cut toggle‭, ‬true bypass‭.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"wp-block-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuzzy to crunchy tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide range of possible textures and character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpressive distortion oscillations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeedback noise loop for unusual sound design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtremely high gain for recording direct to your DAW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse with guitars and keyboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVU meter responds to your playing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"\u003eThe red LED on the radio tower switches on when boost mode is enabled.
