SUMMER SCHOOL ELECTRONICS 

STONE THROWER

This company was founded in Sept 2021 by Mark Turley in Syracuse NY. He has 5 pedals and this Fuzz is the most recent. Except for being a 2 transistor silicon Fuzz it has no published spec. On one hand the vibe is late era Brit but in practice it seems at its best when dialing in a Doom thing where many Fuzz pedals are a tamed octave Fuzz and this one shares the same territory. The layout is a basic gain and level with a very, very good but fixed voice.

CONCLUSION

It sounds very good. The look is fun but tastefully done. I will certainly being exploring his whole line.

You know I am big on the independent makers with small shops handmaking great pedals. Big But! I can not help but compare the just released Keeley Moon. I will not argue that one could say they are different. I can argue that if you had a tune needing the Stone Thrower fat round massive sound that the Keeley will do it as well, if not better and 

yet can be dial in other sounds that the Stone Thrower can't do.

The prices are literally the same. So ???
