Fulltone Queen Bee Sparkle Gold 3 x Germanium Fuzz
The Fulltone Custom Shop Queen Bee is powered by 3 NOS Military “Flying Saucer” germanium transistors in an original design that behaves in an amp-like manner, responding dynamically to the input from your hands and guitar. Great clean-up by lowering the guitar’s volume knob, sweet mids, clarity, sustain, harmonics... It’s all there!
Its first 2 transistors are configured to achieve maximum gain in order to hit transistor #3 extremely hard, creating more sustain and distortion than is possible with 2-transistor Fuzzes while making the pedal rather low-noise for such a high-gained design.
The Queen Bee also has a lot of midrange! Fender amp owners will appreciate the Passive Hi-Cut Treble control for taming the treble, and further sonic sculpting via the Bass switch (placed before transistor #3) tailoring the low frequencies and keeping the bottom-end tight.
This pedal has a wildly asymmetrical waveform high in second-order Harmonics, culminating in a sweet, rich, commanding voice with tons of sustain. Inside the pedal is a trimmer for adjusting the bias of transistor #3 by a range between 2 and 6 volts DC. A slight turn results in a drastic change in sound, in volume, and in compression characteristics. Suddenly firm becomes soft, bright becomes warm, grainy becomes smooth.
The Queen Bee has True-Bypass switching via the Fulltone 3PDT footswitch for maximum signal integrity while the pedal is bypassed. Because the Bee utilizes Germanium transistors it should only be powered with a battery or a “Center Positive,” well-regulated power supply. Fulltone Queen Bees are 100% Hand-Built in the USA.

My name is Michael Fuller, I'm the founder, designer, and President of Fulltone Musical Products Inc.
2018 marks our 25th Anniversary, but I really started Fulltone around 1991 while working as a Session Guitarist, a Composer, Performer, and Electronic Tinkerer. People started calling me asking for my pedals after I was featured in Guitar Player Magazine as one of the winners of their "Ultimate Guitarist Competition" competition.
Fulltone pedals were born out of a love for music, great gear, great tone, and a desire to make bullet-proof products. Early on I developed a love for fine vintage pedals and my frustration at the inconsistencies and the fragile nature of this old gear drove me to start Fulltone. Rich, Fat-sounding TONE TOOLS with a reliable build quality is the goal. All Fulltone effects carry a 5 year warranty and are built for (and by) musicians.
We use True Bypass switching or our exclusive "Enhanced Bypass TM" (OCD V2, WahFull) with L.E.D. status indicator in all our pedals. I designed and manufacture the Fulltone 3PDT , the world's only Super-Duty Triple Pole Double Throw footswitch. All of Fulltone's Pots and switches are designed by me and custom made for me because standard pots are extremely weak and can break with even slight pressure applied to them..
All Fulltone pedals are designed, hand-built & tested by us at our shop in Southern California using top-notch components.
I'm really enjoying playing and producing our product demo videos (done at Fulltone Studio) so please check in regularly at our official YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/fulltoneeffects
Thanks!
Michael Fuller/ President
