Heavy. Thick. Electric.

Many sounds have come and gone over the decades of electric guitar, but one sound in particular was born of fire and cemented in Rock N Roll: the Fuzz Sound.

Within the vast world of fuzz, few can claim the esteem, recording history and power of the classic IC (integrated circuit) distortion-sustainer of the late 1970’s, and there are sound reasons for this accomplishment: the thing circuit just plain rocks!

A fountain of inspiration and a highly effective tool, the SludgeMaster adds heaps of powerful, saturated intensity to your guitar (this thing absolutely RIPS on bass too), readily fattening up single-coils and driving humbuckers well into that “wall of sound” sound, transforming lead lines into “flaming flutes” and rhythms into an absolute tsunami of volatile melodic power.

When we designed the SludgeMaster, we didn’t just copy a thing. No, we saw how we could expand the ferocity, reduce the noise and sweeten up this literal classic, and boy howdy did we do it.

Everything in this pedal is all the way nice.

From tuning the the high-grade passives, to adding robust mechanicals and even down to the deliberate tracking of the circuit board, the SludgeMaster will shock you with its voracious appetite for mayhem and aggression.

Powered by either an internal 9V battery (not included) or “industry standard” 2.1mm negative center-pin 9VDC pedal power, the SludgeMaster delicately sips just shy of 9mA but what it does with that nominal current is downright shocking!

We recommend that you play this pedal at the highest possible volume level attainable with your rig. Get loud and get after it.
