Description
FUZZ
A collaboration between veteran producers Will Putney and Kurt Ballou, Pariah is a devastating fuzz with extreme tone-shaping capabilities inspired by one of Will’s favorite dirt boxes. At its heart are four silicon transistors hand selected to produce harmonically rich yet articulate fuzz. Modern passive components and relay bypass switching ensure low self-noise and reliability for years to come. The three tone controls—Tilt, Mid, and Shape—are quite interactive. Tilt adjusts the overall balance between bright and dark. Mid controls the amount of mid scoop. Shape (along with the position of the Tilt knob) adjusts the mid frequency.
