DISTORTION/FUZZ- MP CUSTOM FX Tesla Distortion Fuzz ...clean fill to patch the holes

MP CUSTOM FX TESLA DISTORTION FUZZ

From Belgrade Serbia comes Milos Popavic. When he started making pedals in 1986 it was all about inventing what you could neither buy or afford. It was probable that most sales would be word of mouth to players who never could afford a pedal at any price. So everything from circuit boards to casings would have to be hand made. The casing are literally cut from metal by hand and bent into shape with a hammer like 19th century blacksmith. Now it passes for cool gourmet but it was not anything more than survival at the beginning.

The workmanship on everything is very well done. If you did not know how its made your eyes could look at forever and it would not hit you. 

The artwork uses photography and is transferred to a vinyl from I suspect a 60's labeling machine bought used on the cheap. 

Being a hands on guy he demand everything be as robust as steel shovel and sees the best parts are those that can last. It would all be pointless if his pedals were nothing more than ornaments siting beside a toasted 60's Colorsound Fuzz with half the parts gone on a shelf

In short every pedal has been perfected over decades using cutting edge tech with NOS Geranium transistors and other parts. Another cool thing is how small the pedals are. 

What looks like a headache of having the jacks on the front of the pedal usually finds a spot on your board that without this it would be unusable space. I have his Ganiac dirt pedal. I found it fit sideways leaving room on what is the top of the pedal for another pedal.

SO WHAT IS IT ?

There is no publish spec. or even a pic I can read the layout. You do have a volume, gain. treble. bass for OD and volume and gain for Fuzz. The Fuzz that acts much like a boost is foot switchable. The easiest way to think of it is Boss SD-1 that switches to a Tube Screamer and you can add a basic Big Muff into the circuit. LOL

CONCLUSION

Who can't use a nice thick and chunky dirt pedal with lots of balz and sustain? Most of us specialize into one basic style and it makes sense to pick a pedal designed for it. But the are always 'Buts'. Pushed hard or backed right off this pedal can take care of them :-)
