Mutant Fuzz - Os Mutantes (Regulus VIII) Fuzz
Unleash the Sonic Sorcery of the Mutant Fuzz Fredric Effects' Mutant Fuzz is a delightfully deranged take on the classic Os Mutantes (Regulus VIII) fuzz circuit. This pedal dives headfirst into the gritty, trebly goodness that made the original Regulus VIII a favorite among Brazilian psychedelic rockers in the 1960s. Like its predecessor, the Mutant Fuzz sports a silicon Fuzz Face-inspired topology, but with a few key tweaks that make it truly unique. Fredric has added some extra gain staging and RF interference filtering, so you can conjure up those gloriously filthy fuzz tones without the pesky radio interference that sometimes plagued the original. The level of gain is perfectly dialed in, offering a thick, satisfying distortion that's just on the right side of unhinged. And the simple hi/low tone switch gives you the best of both worlds - the hi setting captures that quintessential 60s fuzz vibe, while the low setting ushers in a positively doomy, earth-shaking low-end. But the real star of the show is the pedal's eye-catching artwork, courtesy of the talented Stacey Hine. The powder-coated enclosure is adorned with a wild, mutant-inspired design that's sure to turn heads on any pedalboard. Whether you're channeling the psychedelic spirit of Os Mutantes or just seeking a unique and inspiring fuzz tone, the Mutant Fuzz is a must-have addition to any discerning guitarist's sonic arsenal.
