Description

Adrian Thorpe of ThorpyFX was asked to create the ThorpyFX Fallout Cloud by a number of vintage pedal enthusiasts he knows. They were after a Triangle era style fuzz pedal that would work with a variety of guitars (humbuckers, single coil's and P90's) and amps, be bombproof so it can be gigged.

The brief was simple, the task was not, however, after many prototypes and a bit of lateral thinking the ThorpyFX Fallout Cloud was born. The ThorpyFX Fallout Cloud has the ability to beat any four transistor fuzz you have heard (including the best vintage units). By adjusting the perfectly voiced EQ you can achieve fuzz tones from silky smooth through to doom laden whilst maintain the ability to cut through.

Check out the video in the video section if you'd like to hear it in action.

Internally the ThorpyFX Fallout Cloud is immaculately built using premium 1% metalfilm resistors, Wima and Panasonic capacitors, and Neutrik jacks. These are the crème de la crème of the electronics world and when coupled with a robust gold plated PCB and dust sealed potentiometers the recipe is as good as it can possibly be.

Controls

VOLUME: Use this control to balance the output of the ThorpyFX Fallout Cloud. Unity (where the volume out matches the volume in) is approximately at the 12 o’clock position, depending on your guitars pickup output.
SUSTAIN: This control allows you to adjust the ThorpyFX Fallout Cloud character from smooth lower gain fuzz through to a more saturated and aggressive fuzz.
TREBLE: This control adds or cuts treble to the fuzz. Fully counter clockwise removes treble and fully clock wise boosts treble. This control is very interactive with the bass control.
BASS: This control adds or cuts bass to the fuzz. Fully counter clockwise removes bass and fully clockwise boosts bass. This control is very interactive with the treble control. Adjusting the bass and treble control allows you to tailor the tonality of the fuzz to match your guitar and amp.
