ZVEX Vexter Series Fat Fuzz Factory Boutique Germanium Fuzz Guitar Effects Pedal with SUB Switch

Ladies and Gentlemen, we'd like to introduce you to the Fat Fuzz Factory, a take on our original company flag ship Fuzz Factory. The Fat Fuzz Factory features a sub switch that opens up the pedal to an astounding new bottom end. This means the pedal can oscillate at much lower registers, giving it some very interesting thunder broom synth qualities. Based on our field reporst, this new fatness lends itself particularly well to the bass guitar, and rips equally well on guitar.

Controls:

Sub Switch:

1) Sub Level 1. Original Fuzz Factory

2) Sub Level 2. Woof!

3) Sub Level 3. Look Out!!

Knobs:

Volume: Output Level.

Gate: Squelches noise after end of sustain. Turn to the right to eliminate squeals, hiss and buzz, stopping just as they disappear, or use to tune in exact feedback pitch, if you're that kind. Turning to left opens gate.

Compress: Adds attack characteristic when turned to left, which gets softer to right, and suddenly pinches tone when all the way right. Also use to tune in fat feedbacky fuzz, if you're that kind. Lower the stability and see what happens to this control.

Drive: Increases distortion when used as a "normal" fuzz, and adjusts feedback pitch and tonal thickness, if you're that kind. This control becomes meaningless when compress is all the way right.

Stability: Use all the way right. Do not attempt to adjust this control below 2:00, unless you like your fuzz soft and squishy. Use to control feedback pitch (Did i say that already?)
Warning: Many "incorrect" settings on this pedal squeal. This may annoy the faint-hearted. If you use the example settings, you won't get hurt. I don't want to see anyone hurt. Unless you're that kind. Don't forget to memorize or write down your favorite setings.

Greenness: Yes, folks, like all Z. Vex pedals, it's as low current as possible, extending battery life so long... I have never changed the battery in the prototype. "On" current is less than 3 mA... compare to the Tube Screamer (of course an entirely different animal) at almost 40mA.

Artiness: Z.Vex "Vexter Series" effects are hand-polished aluminum, hand silk-screened in two colors and hand assembled. They are produced in small batchs by umm, elves.

Power Supply:

All Z. Vex pedals use a 9V DC power supply with (-) polarity on the middle pin (typical Boss power supply). Using the incorrect supply may damage your pedal. Obviously, you can power your pedal with a good ole 9V battery too.

Manufacturer Warranty: Your Vexter Fat Fuzz Factory is warranted for 1 year from date of purchase or 2 years if you send in your warranty card. Please visit Z.Vex's website for more information.
