DESCRIPTION

The OKKO FX Black Beast is a massive sounding fuzz and distortion effects pedal for guitar and bass.  As the name suggests, the OKKO FX Black Beast is not a smooth vintage germanium fuzz, but a modern distortion machine for all kinds of dirty or heavy sounds.
 
The magic of the OKKO FX Black Beast is in the knob called KAPUTT (German for broken/out of order).  This control changes the gain structure from plain harmonic distortion to all out nasty fuzz.  You can dial in the exact sweet (or not so sweet) spot where you have both: great string separation and clarity of chords and that buzzy, gnarly craziness we all love a good fuzz for.
 
The OKKO FX Black Beast delivers loads of gain and sustain for days.  The active two band tone control provides a wide range of sounds, warm or biting, with tight bass or massive low end.

Here is what engineer and founder of OKKO FX says about the OKKO FX Black Beast.

The Black Beast is not based on any of the classic fuzz pedals.  I had a really good time designing and tweaking the circuit.  Very often, I found myself just playing the thing... that’s always a good sign - Heiko
