Description
Taras Bulba is our take on the classic Germanium Tone Bender MK2 circuit. In addition to vintage fuzz, we put a bunch of modern features into this pedal: a switchable pickups simulator with a buffer that allows you to use the pedal with modern guitar pickups and place the effect everywhere in your pedalboard, external bias control, and hi-cut tone control.
I've used high-quality components to build the pedal: custom manufactured PCB, Wima/Epcos capacitors, Vishay/Philips resistors, Alpha potentiometers, Neutrik jacks, powder-coated aluminum enclosure, UV printed graphics, NOS Soviet MP20, and GT309E Germanium transistors. All this combined delivers a great sound with the minimum amount of noise.
Controls:
Attack - gain control. Bias - varies GT309E transistor biasing allowing to get very different kinds of fuzz: softer or harder one. Hi-Cut - tone shaping that reduces high frequencies. Volume - effect output level. Mode toggle - switches between MK2 and MK1.5 circuits, both have a very different character, MK1.5 is more close to Fuzz Face. Pickup Sim toggle - adds/removes buffer with pickup simulator from the circuit, when switched off you're getting classic effect sensitive to what is placed before the pedal. Impedance - works only with pickup sim enabled, controls the amount of the signal coming to the effect. Somehow similar to guitar volume control. Pickup type toggle - works only with pickup sim enabled, switches between softer (more single-coils alike) and slightly heavier pickup type.
