Silktone Fuzz - Classic Black
At the heart of the SILKTONE Fuzz compact effect pedal are two germanium transistors in the classic fuzz face topology, tweaked to get a huge array of tones and fix all the annoyances you get with a typical germanium fuzz.
Silktone wanted to nail the awesome tones everybody knows and loves when these transistors are biased to their sweet spot… and also when they’re not. With integrated active bias monitor you can easily hit them all.
Want that oh, so sweet sweet sweet spot ? dial it to ~4.50.
Prefer some fat sticky fuzz ? dial it past 7.50.
Want spitty gated fuzz ? dial it to ~1.10. ?
Combine this with the onboard pickup simulator to place this fuzz anywhere in your chain without the normal issues and a cleanup knob to get you into drive territory that rivals the best overdrives out there with beautifully musical germanium color - and you have one of the most useable, versatile fuzzes to date with sooo.. much.. texture.
