Pile of Sticks Fuzz (more aptly named than it's former, with the same circuit) is a highly versatile Octave Fuzz pedal that offers precise control – designed with bassists in mind – but great for guitarists and others (try w/synth!) as well. It's a shockingly huge sound for such a small enclosure with fat, but clean, but ultra-heavy and chaotic intermodulation fuzz with ripping upper-octave riff-inspiring and highly controllable chaotic sonic destruction. Six wide-ranging knob controls allow for precise fine-tuning to your instrument and rig. This pedal is metal AF. Hello, doom.
Fuzz’d Section: (4 knobs, left side top row and bottom row, respectively)
- Gain – Wide range of gain on tap; from mild to completely over-the-top.
- Chaos – From dynamic growling fuzz tones to searing upper-octave intermodulation madness.
- Low – EQ from thin but sharp (fuzzy not farty, haha!) mosquito-like buzz to tremendous resonance like a swarm of giant hornets.
- High – EQ from deep, dark fuzz to scalpel-sharp upper-end tones that cut through the biggest band and loudest mix.
Volume Section: (2 knobs, top and bottom right, respectively)
- Fuzz.V – Fuzz “unclean” volume – adjusts the fuzz’d signal output volume.
-
Clean.V – Adjusts the clean output volume. Can be used independently of the fuzz section as a clean boost/cut, with unity gain at approx.12’o’clock. Can be used in conjunction with the fuzz section to hold onto the bottom end for a massive (ie. not tone-sucking, Attn: bassists!) overall effect.
