Description
M236 Super Badass Variac Fuzz. A dream come true for guitar players chasing vintage fuzz tone.
This tasty fuzz is aggressive and biting and with the twist of a knob, you can drag it into that dying battery territory much prized by tone-chasers.
The MXR design team dusted off a rare vintage silicon circuit, tuned it up and added a Variac control so you can set the pedal’s voltage anywhere from 5V to 15V. For that wonderful saggy fuzz effect you get as a 9V battery loses its power, just lower the voltage by tuning the Variac knob counter clockwise.
Increasing the voltage raises the effects headroom, opening up the fuzz for a more transparent sound at 15V.
The simple interface is rounded out with tone, output and gain controls.
True hardwire bypass.
Powered by a 9 volt battery or AC adaptor (ECB003).
