Wampler Pedals / Cryptid Fuzz

A unique fuzz pedal equipped with a ""CHARACTER knob"" that seamlessly changes the sound of the most famous fuzz pedal.

The classic fuzz tone played by the legendary guitarist of yesteryear, who is still remembered as a masterpiece in the history of rock music, has become an icon for modern rock guitarists. Wampler Pedals CEO Brian Wampler, who is fascinated by that sound, has been researching the unique tones of vintage fuzz every day, and has created the Velvet Fuzz, which is based on that classic sound and tone, but arranged in a modern, easy-to-use manner.

Brian Wampler's long-awaited new product, ""Cryptid Fuzz,"" uses a ""CHARACTER knob"" that is unparalleled in other fuzz pedals.It became famous when Jimi Hendrix used it.While its fat and rough tone is said to be perfect for guitar solos, it also has a sparkling clean tone in the high range when the guitar's volume is turned down. You can enjoy seamlessly controlling the legendary sound characteristics of each of the following: ``Tone Bender'', which was born in the UK in 1965 and whose unique sound between different versions still stirs the exploration spirit of fuzz freaks, and ``Big Muff'', which is synonymous with world-famous American fuzz and is characterized by its intense fuzz sound and roaring sound.

Furthermore, by operating the control knobs installed on this unit, the ``Chime switch'' that allows you to adjust the brightness of the sound, and the ``Tight switch'' that selects the response of the bass range, guitarists can create anything from a classical fuzz sound to a unique, impactful, modern fuzz sound just as they envision it.
