MAS MALO... Featuring 3x hand-picked New old Stock BC184C discrete transistors, this spicy number is capable of vicious, massive sounding Distortion/Fuzz that will feedback infinitely even at bedroom levels! But here's the clincher, dial back the "H" (heat) knob and "D" (distortion) knobs and you can nail many Jimmy Page studio tones as well as your favorite Floyd sounds. Quite possibly the most versatile distortion/fuzz ever made.
Fulltone MM Mass Malo Distortion Fuzz Pedal Features:
Each pedal is fitted with three matched New Old Stock BC184C transistors allowing this pedal to do everything from Jimmy Page type crunch tones, Gilmour style singing leads, all the way to howling, compressed, infinite sustain feedback, even at low volume levels. And with just the right amount of midrange to sit perfectly in the track, or in the live mix. On top of that, Mas Malo has a fairly high input impedance and extremely low output impedance along with true-bypass switching (with Millennium LED switching) to assure that it gets along with everything that comes before, and everything that goes after it.
The Knobs are V for Volume, D for Distortion, C for Color, and H for Heat. Volume & Distortion are self-explanatory, and the Color knob is a unique tone control panning from rich warm sounds all the way to Trebly Fuzztones. The Heat knob regulates the Bias of the first transistor in the circuit, which can really set up a domino effect, and the reason that this pedal can cover as much range as it does.
This pedal truly is MORE BAD.
Controls:
True Bypass: F.E.T. activated LED....also called “Millennium Bypass.” This method was chosen for its pure, uncolored sound as well as to eliminate any loud popping noises while switching the pedal on and off.
Power:
You may run this pedal on the 9 volt battery (included) or on any voltage between 9 and 18 Volts DC as long as the adapter is (standard) 2.1mm x 5.5mm barrel plug with Negative to Center Pin configuration.
To access the battery remove all four Thumbscrews from the sides of the pedal and pull the housing apart. Replace battery, put housing back together and re-tighten all four screws. Unplug guitar cable from INPUT when not in use to prolong battery life, but If you have an adapter plugged in to the DC outlet there is no need to unplug the guitar cable from the INPUT because our DC outlet is True-Bypass and disconnects the battery supply line, thus keeping the battery fresh. For 9 volt operation, the Noise-Free Fulltone IPS-9 is a great (world-wide) 9VDC regulated wall wart adapter. For 18VDC, make sure that you buy our IPS-18 International power adapter.
