76 Octave-up Fuzz.
NB! Tilbudspris gjelder kun 1 stk. igjen på lager!
While the Western world was preoccupied with its Fuzz Faces, Tone Benders and others, the Eastern world was bubbling up with plenty of fuzzes of its own. This very distinct era in fuzz history gave us many treasures that have been crowned fuzz legends—the Univox Super Fuzz, Ibanez Standard Fuzz, Ace Tone Fuzz Master, Shin-Ei Companion and several others. Our 76 offers up a comprehensive guided tour to the best that the Standard Fuzz and its ilk has to offer without any of the drawbacks, such as a quiet signal or fragile wiring. On its face, the 76 gives you a multi-voiced germanium-equipped fuzz unit that gives you hints of octave-up snarl while it ruthlessly pummels your amp with hair and fangs. Aside from standard volume and fuzz controls, and unlike the original Standard Fuzz, the 76 also gives you a texture control that sweeps the midrange, effectively giving you many flavors of fuzz across several positions. A three-way color switch offers a little frequency scoop, but the center position is off, for full-frequency fuzz madness. The internals contain two DIP switches that alter the character of the unit. The first, clip, changes the clipping stack from the stock Standard Fuzz arrangement of two germaniums into a hybrid germanium-silicon arrangement. Engaging this switch opens the sound up, increases crunch and definition for a searing lead tone. The other switch, Dark, engages a treble cut on the input, which helps to prep the incoming signal for the fuzz onslaught. This switch should be engaged if the 76 follows a bright dirt pedal or a jangly set of pickups. The new Standard Fuzz is here and is a forced to be reckoned with, leveling audiences with its punishing buzzsaw grind and unbridled harmonics. The 76 is your favorite fuzz nerd’s favorite fuzz.
KNOBS:
Fuzz:
Turning the Fuzz up ranges from a little crunch to more gain than you could ever want.
Texture:
This control adjusts the mid frequency of the 76. Go from a deep scoop to a mid-drenched grind with a simple twist
Level:
Adjusts the output volume, with more than enough on tap.
TOGGLE SWITCHES:
Color:
Switches between three different frequency ranges, from scooped to full-frequency fuzz tones.
UNDER THE HOOD:
Clip (internal DIP):
When on, the 76 employs germanium diodes for a spongier signal and a harder clipping threshold. When off, a silicon-germanium combo is employed, opening the fuzz signal up a little more. The default is on.
Dark (internal DIP):
When on, the 76 cuts a good amount of treble from the input signal, useful for single-coils and wicking away treble from anything before it. When off, the treble cut is lifted. The default is off.
AUXILIARY:
Input:
Instrument or other pedal goes here.
Output:
Amplifier or other pedal goes here.
True bypass footswitch:
Turns effect on and off.
POWER:
The 76 requires a center-negative 9VDC power adapter with at least 5mA of current (not included). Almost all power supplies meet this requirement.
DIMENSIONS:
4.77" x 2.6 x 1.39" (121.1 x 66 x 35.3mm)
We like it hot. Well, not “hot” exactly, more like “warm.” See, we hail from the Great White North—45.5017° N, 73.5673° W (that’s Montreal, Canada for our readers who are not currently in possession of a Garmin GPS unit). Up here, things get cold, so we count on our effects units to bring the warmth.
This warmth is what made our founder, Greg Djerrahian, fall in love with vintage effects in the first place. But Greg wasn’t content holing up in an igloo surrounded by Fuzz Faces forever—that was a fun winter, sure, but no way to live... No, Greg wanted to push the boundaries of effects pedals to blend the aforementioned warmth with the clarity, response and tone expected from modern day electronics.
So, he did. And today, a decade and a half on, Greg and the rest of the SGFX team here have developed countless innovative features and versatile effects that help artists redefine the boundaries of their music. From ripping fuzz to earth-shaking filters to secret-tonal-weapon utilities, all SolidGoldFX pedals are built entirely in our Montreal shop and are individually tested, inspected, and approved by Greg himself before making their way onto your pedalboard.
