Description

Edit description

The "Octave Up" is a brand new, in stock, ready-to-ship "green ringer" clone octave up pedal from boutique builder Chicago Stompworks. The sound comes from a 60's era transistor circuit that recreates the "Purple Haze" solo effect. It's glitchy, dirty, vintage - not intended as a fuzz box although it can do some way-out transistor grind... This one is an all-out space cadet!
