Danelectro 3699 Fuzz & Octave Guitar Effects Pedal

Danelectro owner Steve Ridinger created the FOXX pedal line in the 1970’s. Now Steve brings back his original circuit with some important tweaks. He made the ­octave way more ­pronounced, the ­octave is foot switchable, the tone is warmer, and there is a “mids boost” toggle that counteracts the mid cut of the ­original pedal. Velvet tone for sure! Play one!

Why call it the "3699 fUZZ"?

Back in the 1970’s, it was cool to have a phone number that spelled your product name. So about a year after launching the FOXX pedals, Steve sat down in front of a phone dial and worked out what numbers were needed to spell F-O-X-X. He figured out the ­numbers were 3-6-9-9. To his amazement, this was the phone number FOXX already had! A year earlier, the phone ­company had randomly assigned him this number: 213-XXX-3699. Creepy!
