Foxxy Fuzz is a hand-built octave fuzz inspired by the classic Foxx Tone Machine, combining thick, sustaining fuzz with switchable octave-up character and alternate clipping options.

With Volume, Drive, and Tone controls plus dedicated Octave and Clipping switches, it can move from warm, dense fuzz to brighter, more aggressive octave textures and sharper harmonic saturation.

Sound

Foxxy Fuzz starts with a thick, compressed fuzz voice with strong sustain and plenty of harmonic content.

The Octave switch introduces an upper-octave component, adding a sharper, more synth-like edge that becomes especially pronounced higher on the neck and with cleaner note articulation.

The Clipping switch changes the clipping response, giving the pedal an additional tonal variation beyond the standard fuzz voice.

The result is a pedal that can stay relatively smooth and vintage-inspired or move into more aggressive, cutting octave-fuzz territory.

Controls

Volume — Sets the overall output level.

Drive — Controls the amount of fuzz gain and saturation.

Tone — Shapes the overall frequency balance from darker and warmer to brighter and more cutting.

Octave — Engages or disables the octave-up effect.

Clipping — Selects between alternate clipping responses for different fuzz textures.

Your pedals are more than just boxes; they're sonic sculptors, crafting the very essence of your sound. To keep them performing at their peak, heed these sacred commandments of pedal care:

The Tenets of Pedal Preservation

  1. Unplug the Beast: Before diving into the cleaning ritual, always disconnect your pedal from the power source. This simple act prevents electrical mishaps and ensures your safety.
  2. A Gentle Wipe: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently caress the pedal's exterior. Remove dust, grime, and the residue of countless gigs.
  3. The Forbidden Liquid: Water, the nemesis of electronics, must be banished from your cleaning routine. Avoid liquid cleaners and moisture at all costs.
  4. The Sacred Knob: When cleaning knobs, rotate them gently, ensuring no debris enters the delicate inner workings.
  5. The Jack's Domain: Utilize a specialized contact cleaner to maintain the integrity of your input and output jacks. A gentle spray and a few rotations will do the trick.
  6. The Power Supply's Purpose: A well-regulated power supply is the lifeblood of your pedalboard. Keep it clean and free from dust, ensuring optimal performance.
  7. The Periodic Purge: Regularly inspect your pedalboard for loose cables, faulty connections, and signs of wear. A well-maintained board is a happy board.
  8. The Holy Grail of Storage: When not in use, store your pedals in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.
  9. The Forbidden Modding: Unless you're a seasoned electronics wizard, resist the urge to tinker with your pedals' internal circuitry. Leave it to the experts.
  10. The Ritual of Respect: Treat your pedals with reverence. They are the tools of your musical expression, deserving of care and attention.

By adhering to these sacred tenets, you'll ensure that your pedals continue to deliver sonic bliss for years to come.
