With the ZVex US Vexter Fuzz Factory, you get a 5-knob fuzz unit that features 2 old-stock '60s gemanium transistors, packed into a USA-made engraved aluminium chassis, which delivers the kind of vintage, 60s-style fuzz that we all know and love.
Not only that, but the Fuzz Factory is specially-designed to consume less power than other pedals, with a current draw of less than 3 mA, making it the perfect fit for pretty much any guitar-players rig.
ZVex's Flagship Fuzz Box
When it comes to boutique-style effects pedals - especially Fuzz and Distortion units - there are few pedal-makers out there quite as accomplished or widely regarded as ZVex.
In this case we have the company's very own flagship fuzz pedal, an effect so well-thought of by none other than Muse's Matt Bellamy that he had the circuit grafted into most of his custom-made guitars!
Easy To Use Controls
Dialing in your perfect fuzz tones is as easy as you could want it to be, thanks to the following control knobs:
< li >Volume - adjusts the pedal's output level
< li >Gate - turn to the right to "close" the noise gate and you will eliminate squeals, hiss, and buzz, or dial in the exact feedback pitch you want, turning to the left "opens" it
< li >Compress -pinches or opens the tone to add the kind of attack characteristic that you want
< li >Drive - increases/reduces distortion level
< li >Stability - controls feedback pitch
This flexible control set can take you from tight, glitchy gates fuzz tones, to inter-modulating oscillations that fight for control of your guitar as your notes decay, and everything in between.
US Vexter Series
As you can tell by the name, this pedal is part of the more-affordable US Vexter offerings from ZVex.
This USA-made range features an engraved steel chassis without any of that signature ZVex artwork, and is packed full of the premium-grade internal components.
In other words: you get all of that killer tone, without having to worry about scuffing up any hand painted designs.
