Fulltone 69 MkII 60s Classic Fuzz Pedal

The Fulltone 69 MKII Fuzz Pedal is a vintage-inspired '60s style fuzz pedal designed to provide tube-like tones and touch-responsive fuzz sounds. Here's a detailed breakdown of its key features and specifications:

Fulltone 69 MKII Fuzz Pedal Features:

• '60s Style Touch Responsive Fuzz Tones: The pedal is built around two germanium transistors, delivering authentic tube-like tones with a touch-responsive feel. It captures the essence of classic '60s fuzz and provides fully saturated fuzz sounds.
• Volume Control for Clean-Up: The pedal responds dynamically to your guitar's volume control. Rolling down the volume on your guitar allows you to clean up the fuzz, providing versatility in tonal expression. This feature is reminiscent of classic fuzz tones used by artists like The Rolling Stones and Black Crowes.
• Contour Control: The Contour control enables mid-frequency adjustment, allowing you to shape your tone and cut through the mix. It's particularly useful for lead and solo parts where a mid-range punch is essential.
• Input Trim Control: The Input Trim control helps remove low-end "flubbiness," providing clarity and definition to your fuzz tone, especially when using stacked effects like wah pedals.
• Internal Bias Control: The internal bias trim allows you to adjust the character of the distortion. This control ranges from smooth and soft tube tones to harder, louder, and less compressed fuzz sounds, offering a wide range of sonic possibilities.
• Robust Metal Chassis: Housed in a sturdy metal chassis, the pedal is designed to withstand the rigors of live performances and frequent travel. Its durable construction ensures reliability on the road.
