"You lyin' so low in the weeds,
I bet you gonna ambush me.
You'd have me down, down, down, down on my knees
Now wouldn't you?
Barracuda, oh..."
The clone of the OG (non-SRV) Lovepedal Super Six Overdrive/Preamp.
These original versions are a little hard to come by these days, so here's some info for those who doesn't know much about this fantastic circuit...: 🤫
It was an excellent boutique hand-wired circuit released in very limited quantities circa 2005, that promised to provide Blackface-era tube amp-like tone to any guitarist’s rig by providing boost, buffering, and an old-school vintage style grit. Its FET-based circuit provides natural-sounding break-up, transparency, and subtle compression that players can shape using highly interactive controls.
Intended to yield rich, harmonic Fender "Super Reverb on 6"-style tones to nail the 60's era flavor, this meanie greenie will turn any small amp into a much larger sounding amp instantly!
Its highly praised and meticulously recreated original vintage tonestack will offer ultimate control over any guitar/amp/effects combination and will push it into an ultimate sonic bliss!
Add a bit of chime, in the way original Fenders did, or soften the overly-bright response of your other favorite pedal. FAFX HEMI 'Cuda can do it all with a hit of a switch!!
It's firebreathing Four-twenty-SIX engine can be used as a Buffer, Boost, Clean Boost, Vintage EQ, Compressor or simply to add some analog character to a modern digital rig!
I personally liked this circuit a lot, it definitely has that cranked Fender flavour to it and a nice open response many Twin Reverb and similar amp lovers crave for! Compared to the modern "SRV" version, this has a fuller, more open sound and a lot of hair on the individual notes! Highly recommend it to anyone who's in search of a compact Swiss-army knife analog all-in-one tone solution! 🙂
Controls are:
Lvl. (Level) - sets the output Volume of an effect, should be self explanatory...
Tone - your classic TS-style tone control: Bassier to the left, Treblier to the right...
Gain - changes amount of Drive, ranging from clean to hot Boost.
Features:
- You support the builder! Each and every penny spends on parts for more complex builds! (You are always buying from the builder direct or through one of the members of FAFX family, I am saving to start building amps currently...)
- All hand-made! I am designing, drilling, painting and building all my effects from scratch, one by one, old-school style. Futile Art FX are completely made by hand! I never use premanufactured PCBs, enclosures and circuits.
- Premium hardware. Rugged aluminium enclosure, full-metal jacks and industrial grade switches. Futile Art FX will last you a living!
- Worldwide International shipping! Each and every pedal in this shop is in stock, ships worldwide w. tracking and secure packaging for only a fraction of the whole "Smuggler's Blues" cost... 😏
Housed in a durable aluminum 1590b enclosure (battery clip inside). Original printed design w. bright water-clear White LED upfront.
