We'd like to introduce you to Project 34. 34 just happens to be the atomic number of selenium, and at the heart of this pedal is a selenium rectifier. Selenium rectifiers are an old technology that goes back to pre-germanium times, and were first introduced in the early 1930's. They were last used in the guitar world as rectifiers in older amps such as the 1950's tweeds. Later on in the 1960's they were phased out as the industry turned to modern solid state silicon instead of selenium and tube rectifiers.

Enter Cusack Music founder Jon Cusack. Jon had some 60 year old selenium rectifiers left from his days as an amp repairman, and he always wondered about using them in a pedal. We did just that in 2021 when Cusack music made a very small run of 20  Screamer Fuzz Selenium pedals, which sold out immediately. Jon thought he would never find the suitable rectifiers again because today they are usually relegated to just a few larger industrial and military applications, but after over a year of searching he finally located the supply we needed to make another pedal. While they are a very expensive component, we think you'll come to agree that they certainly do have a sound of their own.

The Cusack Music Screamer V2 is a guitar overdrive pedal designed by Jon Cusack, a true engineer who aimed to create a pedal with parts and circuitry that would bring a guitar’s tone to life. The Screamer V2 is an updated version of the original Cusack Screamer V1, with a focus on improving the tone and adding new features.

Manual

Screamer V2

Never-Off Scruzz Bass

The Tap-A-Delay is a 750mS digital delay that mixes the original analog signal with the delayed signal. It is a bit gritty, and very analog flavored. This isn’t a clean studio quality digital delay with perfect repeats, it's much more tape-like than it is digital sounding.  

The Tap-A-Delay Deluxe version features a "Float" switch that controls a momentary feedback loop. At lower feedback settings this enables "floating" ambient sounds, at highter feedback settings it causes quicker feedback "runaway" oscillation. There is also a mini switch provided which to the left enables notes played after the float switch is engaged to add to the loop, while to the right the added notes are un-effected ("dry") .

Tap-a-Delay Deluxe

The Louder is the "Never-Off" version of the More Louder (minus the buffer toggle).

This is a small pedal that produces a big sound. The Louder features 0 to 25dB of clean boost! The Louder is not a treble boost, so it won’t affect your tone. You will retain your natural guitar tone, but even Louder.

Note: Cusack "Never-Off" pedals do not come equipped with true bypass switches or battery power capability. These products are meant to work with a switcher system.
