Prepare to embark on a sonic journey with the JHS Coyote, an octave fuzz pedal that defies tradition by reviving a legendary yet elusive fuzz circuit. Crafted as an homage to the late Glenn S. Wyllie's Moonrock Fuzz, this pedal offers a distinctive voice that stands apart from conventional octave fuzz designs. At its core, a transformer-based circuit brings an uncommon texture and touch sensitivity, allowing you to explore three remarkable soundscapes with just one knob.

The Coyote's Swell/Fuzz/Octave control takes you through a seamless transition between its unique effects. Begin with the Swell mode for a gated, reverse-tape-like effect where notes bloom with a soft attack, akin to a breathing entity. As you dial towards the midpoint, the pedal transforms into a robust fuzz, reminiscent of the classic Tone Bender with its rich lows and mid-range aggression, perfect for chordal explorations in psychedelic rock or shoegaze. Push the control further, and the pedal erupts into an octave-up fuzz, delivering snarling harmonics ideal for crafting Hendrix-inspired riffs.

What sets the Coyote apart is its remarkable touch sensitivity and dynamic response, a rarity in the realm of octave fuzzes. Adjust your guitar's volume and discover how the pedal cleans up beautifully, offering warm fuzz tones that respond to the intensity of your picking. This makes the Coyote an expressive companion for creative guitarists eager to explore a wide spectrum of fuzz textures.
