Very rare boutique fuzz/distortion/boost pedal built by Chuck French of Wovenhand / Planes Mistaken For Stars circles in Denver. This is the dual footswitch version of the Gene Hackman circuit — a super unique germanium/JFET design that can move from lower-gain vintage-style germanium textures into gnarly saturated fuzz/distortion territory.
The pedal features:
- 2-stage germanium/JFET gain structure
- dual footswitch design for low/high gain operation
- 4-way selectable bandwidth/clipping voicing
- massive low-end capability
- articulate but aggressive fuzz/distortion character
- handmade enclosure artwork
This thing excels at:
- sludge
- doom
- post-metal
- blown-out garage fuzz
- saturated shoegaze textures
- heavy boosted amp tones
It can do everything from lower-gain germanium breakup to super saturated fuzz-adjacent distortion while still maintaining note clarity.
Built in very small quantities and difficult to find information on now. There were rumors of players from Primitive Man using these.
Condition:
Fully functional with cosmetic wear from use as shown in photos. Please review all images carefully.
Selling because I’m simplifying my touring/studio setup.
