Nice simple Vintage / Modern Fuzz

Switch between vintage Germanium and modern Silicone style fuzz, Not too much adjustment on the level of fuzz, just an input dial to boost the signal going into it if needed and a subtle "colour" dial which adds some tone shaping - big difference with the GE / SI switch. Unlike a distortion type pedal, this doesn't "clean up" when you dial it back, the input just helps you to control the signal going in to achieve the best fuzz character for your pickups
