Bassfuzz.com Presents: Tentacle Love Fuzz Prototype

Stashed under: Tentacle Love Super Fuzz — grygrx @ 10:00 am

Things are moving along very well in the fuzz project I have underway with Mario of Robot Factory Pedal Co and I thought it was time to start the sharing. Here is a photo of the prototype for the ‘Tentacle Love Super-Fuzz’.

This pedal is a melding of my lust for bass friendly fuzz and his wild mechanical genius.  This pedal is born from the shin-ei superfuzz, but to call it a clone is doing a disservice to what is going on here.  Here are a few highlights.

  • Buzzwords: True bypass, buffered, clean-blend
  • Both modes of the Superfuzz are available via a stomp (with a light to inform you what mode you are in).
  • Each mode has it’s own adjustable volume.
  • The Timbre control will manipulate the amount octave up signal in ‘Saw’ mode.
  • Small enclose with top mounted jacks and power (note: no battery inside… NO ROOM!).
There are some other details I’ll address as we get a even closer.  Our goal is to provide a kick-ass heavy fuzz (not subtle fuzz) with a wide range of flexibility.  An initial run 10 pedals will be produced to ‘test the waters.’ Details of timing and price will be worked out shortly.   If you have any questions, feel free to send them in.
