It's time to explore. With two modes (germanium and silicon) to choose from you can dial in the perfect amount of fuzz. Germanium offers a softer and rounded response, flowing with tamed highs and a lower output, great for a bluesy crunch or some low gain rock. Switch over to the Silicon mode for a modern response with a blisteringly high output, excellent for when you need a more extreme edge to your music.
If you're looking to match some high output pickups with a hungry overdrive pedal, you've found the right one. Crank the dials to maximum to reveal an explosive tone that won't relent, an ideal pairing with hot humbuckers.
No matter where this pedal is on your chain, it's not going to interfere with your sound. Thanks to true bypass you'll get a pure signal pass through when the pedal isn't in use. So, your overdrive is only going to kick in when you want it.
