Description

Fuzzrocious Pedals Playing Mantis is the perfect effects pedal for players who enjoy standing out from the crowd.  You will not sound like anyone else because this effects pedal is special! 

The right footswitch activates a natural sounding overdrive.  Via a three way toggle, the user can select a clean boost, overdrive, or distortion. All three settings have plenty of volume on tap to push other effects pedals or your amp and speakers into their sweet spot. 

The left footswitch activates the weirdest oscillator Fuzzrocious Pedals have made to date!  The options are insane!  Between the three pots, knobs, four toggles, and expression jack the Fuzzrocious Pedals Playing Mantis help the user to get weeeeeeird. 

The expression jack allows you to bypass the pitch oscillation pot and sweep the oscillating pitch up and down with an expression pedal of your choice.  Fuzzrocious Pedals suggest a Moog or M-Audio expression pedal; others may have positive or negative effects on the sweep of the pitch oscillation.  Two pitch toggles allow the user to mess with the pitch and move it much higher or much lower. 

An LED toggle adds and subtracts an LED to the oscillator changing the grit and shape. The Merge toggle folds the oscillator over and changes the shape a bit resulting in a different grind of oscillation

The volume pot controls the overall volume of the oscillator and the voltage lets the user sag the voltage going to the oscillator, resulting in weird glitches and pitch changes. The drive and oscillator circuits can be independently activated, bypassed or used together. 

The first 50 units of the Fuzzrocious Pedals Playing Mantis were exclusively acid etched by Handsome Beard Etching.  Please note that due to the process of acid etching, no two enclosures were exactly the same.  There are etched artifacts randomly on each enclosure and some imaging/text may be more or less crisp in appearance than others.  This is part of the charm of acid etching. 

Now that the first 50 units have been sold, all enclosures moving forward will be powder coated and screen printed by JuxtaPrints
