SNEAK PEAK ___ FENDER Version 2 Pedals ...looks promising ???

   · FENDER ·
          VERSION 2
The first ones came out 8 years ago. 
These have had a total overhaul 
and even new enclosures.

THE PELT ...is a silicon Fuzz with an octave effect. 
Muff meets Super Fuzz.  
____
Santa Anna ...their idea of a hot rod Fender amp 
like a MESA Boogie. 
____
PUGILIST ...a take on American hot rod Brit Amps 
 
Sweetwater are taking pre-orders. There are 
no videos.  They all sell for $230.00 USD ea. 



FUZZ- SUNHAUS Geological Fuzz ___NEW___ understated yet assertive

sunhaus
Djandek Geological Fuzz
$160.00 USD
Made by Marcus Skinner in Australia. Definitely an engineered Fuzz. 
Every control has a totally controlled range. In short finding a sweet 
spot is easy. It is more akin to dialing in an overdrive than a Fuzz.
The layout is Volume, BIAS, Blend adds cleans and Slump gates the 
input for those voltage starved 'velcro' tones with just a bit of spit 
and sputter. The pedal is buffered so you will not have any 
impedance headaches.
            CONCLUSION __
It is not a clone but it is a silicon Fuzz and borrows from 
them all. A great first Fuzz as it is as controllable and 
fuss free as a 3 knob overdrive. Oddly in spite of not 
being unwelding it has a lot of character & personality. 
It has vocal quality to its voice. Impossible not to like.

$160.00 USD
DRONECHOV NOISE MACHINES
Stepping Razor   
Yes it started life as Rat as a child but as an adult it became 
a serious shredders overdrive, 😇
The layout is Volume, Tone and Gain but with a handy blend 
of clean/dirty to gives it full definition and articulation. The 
toggle gives you Silicon LED & even FET/tube like distortion.
     CONCLUSION ___
The FET voicing gives you a bit of that Tone Bender
Fuzz going thru a Stack like sound which can make 
it not just a OD for a few tunes. It is exciting and in 
your face but can be pulled back into the real world. 
Almost, 😕...kind of

OVERDRIVE- MAD PROFESSOR Little Green Wonder ___NEW ___ Tube Screamer clone

 ·MAD PROFESSOR· 
  LITTLE GREEN WONDER  · 
$380.00 USD
Nothing miraculous just another Tube Screamer. 99% of most 
players can get what they need from a new $100.00 USD Ibanez 
TS-9. Pro players are using it as a booster not an OD and it 
nails that job. 
The layout is like the original. You get a simple Volume, Tone 
& Gain.
           CONCLUSION __
You get all the best parts in a very nice handmade 
pedal that could last decades. For the money you 
could have 3 new and one used Ibanez, lol.
If you want an all bells and whistles new & improved
then get the $200.00 USD Warm Audio Fluff Drive. 
Equally well made and with an added great near 
Brit Crunch and even a gate for if you push it 
into very high gain territory.

Since you asked ...
The $30.00 USD Behringer uses the 4558 OpAmp 
the same that is in the the Ibanez ts808. 
( buy on Sweetwater)
or? 
I prefer the $40.00 USD Caline Emerald Night, ts9 clone. 
(buy on REVERB)
