A variable bias dual‐transistor amplifier stage provides the variable drive function (VOICE 3). A silicon bipolar transistor is used in a unique common‐base mode together with a silicon diode to create a warm and complex distortion generating element. The standard tone control circuit is post‐distortion for full effect on the rich harmonic palette. The final output stage uses another JFET op‐amp to provide an additional fixed boost of 9 dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA four‐position rotary switch provides a wide range of audio options by switching signal paths and tone shaping components with effects as described in the “Controls” section above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DRIVE section has a transistor emitter‐follower at its input. A variable feedback JFET op‐amp drive section provides up to 40 dB of gain with symmetric clipping. When driven hard, this can provide a classic distortion function. The tone section provides a wide range of tone curve settings using a rotary potentiometer and four position selector switch. The output stage uses a low‐noise JFET op‐amp to provide 12 dB of clean signal boost, superior to typical boost pedals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FUZZ and DRIVE sections are completely independent and can be used singly or in tandem. Each has its own input and output jack. By default, the FUZZ comes before the DRIVE, with the internal bypass within the “DRIVE IN” jack feeding FUZZ output into DRIVE input without need of an external patch cable. You can place the DRIVE ahead of the FUZZ by plugging the input signal into the “DRIVE IN” jack, connecting a patch cable from “OUTPUT” to “INPUT”, and taking the output from the “FUZZ OUT” jack. Using all four jacks, you can patch the two effects independently into any positions you wish within your pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe analog circuitry includes a fully regulated analog ground for maximum immunity form hum, power supply variations and battery ageing. All active components are surface mounted. PCBs and ribbon are cables used throughout. No unreliable point‐to point wiring. Lead and cadmium free construction (RoHS). If an AC adaptor plug is inserted, the internal battery is disconnected. Replace battery when you detect a loss of signal output level, unusual distortion, or a dimming of the LEDs.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2020-11-03T11:35:54-06:00","created_at":"2020-11-02T15:35:08-06:00","vendor":"Valco","type":"Guitar Effects","tags":["Accessories","BC1","BOX_12x9x6_Sm","Brand_Valco","newarrival-instock","saleable","Type_Distortion and Overdrive","Type_Fuzz"],"price":37900,"price_min":37900,"price_max":37900,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":36949076705437,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"2656","requires_shipping":false,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Valco BloodBuzz - Fuzz \/ Drive - Dual Guitar Effects Pedal from Eastwood Guitars - NEW!","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":37900,"weight":2268,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":3,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"731007834199","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-1.jpg?v=1604354474","\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-2.jpg?v=1604354485","\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-3.jpg?v=1604354485","\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-4.jpg?v=1604354475"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-1.jpg?v=1604354474","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":11965418963101,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"width":1600,"src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-1.jpg?v=1604354474"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-1.jpg?v=1604354474","width":1600},{"alt":null,"id":11965418995869,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"width":1600,"src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-2.jpg?v=1604354485"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-2.jpg?v=1604354485","width":1600},{"alt":null,"id":11965419028637,"position":3,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"width":1600,"src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-3.jpg?v=1604354485"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-3.jpg?v=1604354485","width":1600},{"alt":null,"id":11965419061405,"position":4,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1603,"width":1603,"src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-4.jpg?v=1604354475"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":1603,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.makenmusic.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Valco_BloodBuzz_Fuzz_Boutique_Guitar_Effects_Pedal_2656_731007834199-4.jpg?v=1604354475","width":1603}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eValco BloodBuzz Fuzz \/ Drive Pedal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-in-one Fuzz \/ Drive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand-Made in Canada\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBoutique Guitar Effects Pedal\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Valco BloodBuzz is a modern tribute to the legendary Lovetone Cheese Source effects pedal, but with some modern tweaks to improve the overall EQ and expand its versatility.

The final output stage uses another JFET op‐amp to provide an additional fixed boost of 9 dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA four‐position rotary switch provides a wide range of audio options by switching signal paths and tone shaping components with effects as described in the “Controls” section above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DRIVE section has a transistor emitter‐follower at its input. A variable feedback JFET op‐amp drive section provides up to 40 dB of gain with symmetric clipping. When driven hard, this can provide a classic distortion function. The tone section provides a wide range of tone curve settings using a rotary potentiometer and four position selector switch. The output stage uses a low‐noise JFET op‐amp to provide 12 dB of clean signal boost, superior to typical boost pedals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FUZZ and DRIVE sections are completely independent and can be used singly or in tandem. Each has its own input and output jack. By default, the FUZZ comes before the DRIVE, with the internal bypass within the “DRIVE IN” jack feeding FUZZ output into DRIVE input without need of an external patch cable. You can place the DRIVE ahead of the FUZZ by plugging the input signal into the “DRIVE IN” jack, connecting a patch cable from “OUTPUT” to “INPUT”, and taking the output from the “FUZZ OUT” jack. Using all four jacks, you can patch the two effects independently into any positions you wish within your pedalboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe analog circuitry includes a fully regulated analog ground for maximum immunity form hum, power supply variations and battery ageing. All active components are surface mounted. PCBs and ribbon are cables used throughout. No unreliable point‐to point wiring. Lead and cadmium free construction (RoHS). If an AC adaptor plug is inserted, the internal battery is disconnected. Replace battery when you detect a loss of signal output level, unusual distortion, or a dimming of the LEDs.\u003c\/p\u003e"}
