Known from John Mayer's version of Crossroads! In the range of generally available fuzz boxes covering a scale from 1 through 10, this one goes to 15 ! Specifically designed to simulate "Imminent Amp Death" this custom built unit features several separate stages so that the user may tune it to his or her own degree of 'IAD'.

The first stage is a Linear DRIVE with up to +26dB of gain feeding the second stage; a stabilized "Germanium" preamp which overloads smoothly when overdriven. The third stage is where the NG magic takes place; it simulates a tube amp that has been over biased or has suffered serious tube or output transformer failure (The sound just before the fuse blows). The SUSTAIN control adjusts the signal level into the third section and can be adjusted from 'Tired Output Tubes' to 'Melted Tubes and Shorted Output Transformer'.

TONE and VOLUME controls complete the ensemble to allow matching to your bypassed signal. To glory in the sound of this pedal feed it into an amp capable of delivering huge amounts of clean, pure tone into your speakers.

FEATURES:

• RFI rejecting input and bypass buffer.
• Each unit is hand built, wired and tested by Pete, Lynda and Mingus Cornish.
• Housed in a Rugged Die-cast box with 'Chicken-Head' pointer knobs.
• Heavy Duty Custom made all-metal footswitch with Hi-Brite LED.

Easy battery replacement via 'drawer'. The battery is switched on when you insert the “INPUT / PWR ON” jack and to ensure long battery life unplug this lead when the unit is not in use. If the unit is not to be used for a long time we recommend that you remove the battery. Preferred battery type is MN1604.

Also fitted is an input for a DC adapter: the size of the connector is M2.1 and the tip is negative (-VE). The voltage rating of the adapter should be fully stabilized at 9.6V and capable of supplying 20mA. We recommend the use of the BOSS PSA series adapters (PSA-100/110/220 or 240 depending on your local AC supply voltage) as meeting the above criteria and cannot accept any liability for damage caused to this unit by the use of any other type of AC/DC adapter.

Although the current consumption of our Stand Alone pedals is extremely low, giving an extended battery life, it may be appropriate to use an AC/DC Adaptor for long term usage. If a single pedal only is in use then the Boss PSA series will be cost effective but we do not recommend this unit for powering multiple effects as ground loops can become troublesome.

After extensive testing for both noise, stability and reliability we have pleasure in recommending the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus as being suitable for powering our range of stand alone pedals - particularly when multiple effects are in use. The isolated outputs of the Pedal Power 2 Plus prevent the occurrence of ground loops and the noise level is too low to measure.
