The pedal that started it all for Creepy Fingers Effects. The Sugarboost is back! Based on the Dallas Rangemaster made famous by musicians like Tony lommi and Brian May. While capable of the classic treble crunch of the original, the Sugarboost shines as a full range booster. Tones bordering on fuzz at full tilt. Low end adjustable with the thin/fat knob. Gentle to slamming boost on tap. A pedal you'll want to leave on all the time. Pristine clean up with the guitar's volume knob, rich overdrive and distortion when pummeling the input of an overdriven amplifier. New version includes a switch to engage a germanium clipping mode. Adds fuzzy compression and sag reminiscent of a tube amp pushed to the limits of its output section. Makes for a flexible addition when stacking pedals either before or after. Available with vintage RCA germanium or the Raytheon house number transistor that put the Sugarboost on the map. Housed in the new Creepyfingers 2 knob all steel enclosures and featuring old school 3 color silkscreen artwork. High quality switchcraft jacks, WIMA caps, and true bypass switching. Common negative ground power compatible with modern power supplies.

Jext Telez has worked closely with Jake Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet to dial up a custom voiced Jext Telez Range Lord for him. This is a limited edition of 100 pedals that are all tweaked exactly like Jake’s. 
 The main engine in the Range Van Lord is one of the rarest pieces of germanium on the planet: a 1959 Mullard Silver OC44.
 The character of distortion is pure harmonic bliss! Known as an 'Always On' pedal, the Dallas Arbiter Rangemaster has been used by Eric Clapton, Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore and Brian May to achieve their signature tones. 
 Jext Telez effects are covered by a 1-year manufacturer warranty.

The Psychedelic Machine features three of the 1960's most iconic effects. The Uni-Vibe, Fuzz Face and Octavia pedals all shaped the sound that guitarists would be using over the next sixty years.

We have meticulously integrated all three iconic vintage effects into one unit. The Vibe circuit is identical to the original first year "Honey" Uni-Vibe circuit made popular by artists such as Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour and Robin Trower. We used the same attention to detail in the fuzz and octave circuits which are based on an original 1960's BC109 Fuzz Face and 1970's Tycobrahe Octave device. Many rare NOS parts were used in the building of this effect such as matched Telefunken BC109 transistors, carbon composition resistors, germanium diodes, Mullard mustard capacitors and the highest grade audio quality Nichicon electrolytic capacitors. One of our main engineering goals was to reduce and eliminate unwanted hum and radio frequencies. You'll find this device is extremely quiet when compared to other effects in the same categories.

Time to get crazy! Here's a fun little fuzz from the land the rising sun. Built in the 70's. by Guyatone, the Crazy Face was also known as the "Fuzzie" or "Crazy Tone". Created as a budget alternative to the Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face hence the round enclosure and general face aesthetic. Slight changes to the circuit greatly altered the bias and tone. From my assumptions components were sourced more for their price and availability than their adherence to the fuzz face circuit. This resulted in a wildly overbiased and a lot of times far too gated fuzz. Finding a good one can be a gamble. The Creepy Fingers "Crazy Creepy" is here to make sure you win that bet. Featuring a pair of N.O.S. Matsushita 2SB54 germanium transistors the Crazy Creepy has features added to either tame the wild sound or let it loose. Paying tribute to the original graphics the first 25 will have custom made mini witch hat knobs. As with the Creepy Fingers Creepy Face, the pedal can be powered via an internal charge pump for external power supplies or switched to vintage correct unfiltered 9v battery power via the internal dip switch. Smooth taper fuzz control lets you dial in various shades of fuzz. The "Crazy" knob when turned left gets you in fuzz face territory. Rich smoky germanium texture and sparkling clean up with the guitar volume. Turned to the right the circuit becomes overbiased. This will get you the ragged, gated, psychedelic sounds of the best vintage units and anywhere between. Housed in custom Creepy Fingers enclosures, modern updates include: true bypass input grounded switching, switchcraft jacks, and led indication. Although adorable the originals were not cut out for life on the road. Currently out of stock but will return towards the end of Summer. Email [email protected] to get on the wait list!
