Description

The Fulltone OF-1 Octafuzz is a modern homage to the iconic Tychobrahe Octavia, delivering a fuzz pedal experience that is both timeless and cutting-edge. This pedal is engineered for musicians chasing the legendary tones of Hendrix and SRV or those looking to carve out their own distinct soundscapes. The OF-1 Octafuzz goes beyond traditional fuzz, offering an expansive effect range that includes both rich fuzz and octave-up sounds.

Crafted with a heavy steel enclosure, this pedal is as durable as it is stylish, featuring a vintage-inspired design that nods to its classic roots. The unit is equipped with Fulltone’s custom-made, long-lasting brass-shaft pots, ensuring a smooth and reliable performance during every jam session. Whether you’re on stage or in the studio, its true bypass technology ensures that your guitar's natural tone remains uncolored when the pedal is disengaged.

With its user-friendly interface, the OF-1 allows you to easily switch between "Fuzz" and "Octafuzz" modes, giving you the flexibility to tailor your sound with precision. Join the ranks of legendary artists who trust Fulltone for their tonal needs and discover why the OF-1 Octafuzz is a staple for serious players.

"I like how fuzz gets people’s attention. I find most overdrives are boring, and I get most of my overdrive from the amp, anyway. A good example of the Octafuzz is on ‘Battle for Britain.’” - says Slick in this article.
