Description

Edit description

Have you ever ever wanted to be able to play death metal with a fuzz? Or Doom with a crazy saturated distortion? Well the BASILISK is both at once! Both wooly and throaty, thick and yet tight enough for palm mutes. The BASILISK comes from a HEAVILY modified take on the old Roland BeeBaa circuit but with some excellent modern changes. The full TMB tone stack give you access to a staggering range of tones!

Guitar Pedal X - News - Longterm Impressions of my original Blackhawk Amplifiers Trifecta - Balrog, Basilisk, and Fellbeast Fuzz / Distortions

guitarpedalx.com

The Blackhawk Amplifiers Basilisk Fuzz delivers a rich, mid-present tone perfectly suited for palm-muting and complements its sibling, the Balrog, in a dual pedal setup. While it excels in creating a modern fuzz sound, its distinct "bark" may not appeal to those desiring a more traditional fuzz experience. Some users may find it tricky to navigate the Blackhawk lineup initially, but once you do, the Basilisk proves to be a valuable addition. Overall, it's an impressive option for those looking to expand their fuzz palette, though it may require some tweaking to truly shine.
