Description
The MXR M236 Super Badass Variac Fuzz empowers guitarists to explore a massive spectrum of aggressive, vintage-inspired dirt tones. By integrating a unique voltage control feature, players can seamlessly adjust the pedal’s internal power anywhere from five to fifteen volts.
Lowering the voltage starves the circuit to produce a spitting, dying-battery fuzz that reacts brilliantly to your picking hand. Increasing the voltage opens up the headroom for a clear, thunderous roar that cuts through dense stage mixes. With dedicated tone and gain knobs, this highly responsive fuzz adapts instantly to your musical expression.
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).
