Catalinbread Fuzzrite Ge

So you can plug in the Fuzzrite to get any of those 60s style fuzz effects. It only uses 2 transistors to get its sound and can go from wild screeching fuzz tones to warm, rich fuzz. It has a fantastic rasp in the mid-range and will cut through the mix unlike a lot of other fuzz pedals that get drowned out by their own wooly fuzz tones.

Catalinbread happen to have a germanium version at their disposal, and have used it as a benchmark to create an extremely faithful version with a modern twist. Just like the original, the Catalinbread Fuzzrite Germanium includes two NOS PNP germanium semiconductors with a polarity inverter IC so it plays nice with all forms of power. Unlike the original, they've added a toggle switch to shift into modern mode, significantly beefing up the low-end content to suit more contemporary rigs.
