Bass Tight Fuzz

Das BluesFuzz Jr Fuzz Pedal basiert auf dem BluesFuzz Limited, einem begehrten auf 49-Stück limitierten Modell, das einen Germanium-Transistor mit niedrigem Gain mit Boost-, Mid-EQ- und Tight-Attack-Schalter besaß. Es verfügt über die meisten der Optionen, auf seinem großen Bruder zu finden sind, wobei einige Features, die viele Gitarristen nicht benötigen eingespart wurden, um Größe und Gewicht zu reduzieren. Abgeleitet von der Pro-Serie wurden Tight-Regler und Fat-Schalter in einen 3-Positionen-Fat / Normal / Tight-Schalter umkonfiguriert, um das Attack von dick und heavy zu aggressiv und clunky zu verändern. Da dieses Modell verfügt über einen Germanium-Transistor mit geringem Gain und einen Input Boost um dichtere Fuzz Sounds zu erhalten. Und um die wichtigen Mitten hinzu zu blenden, gibt es einen Mid-Regler, wie beim Original-BluesFuzz. Die geniale automatische Bias Anpassung des Fuzz-Reglers sorgt dafür, dass der Sweet Spot immer griffbereit ist und macht, dass sich das Blues Fuzz Jr besonders gut für cleane Sounds eignet.

The BluesFuzz Jr fuzz pedal is based on the BluesFuzz Limited, a sought-after 49 piece model that used a low gain germanium transistor with boost, mid EQ, and Tight attack switch. It shares most of the tone-tweaking features available on its larger counterpart, while eliminating some features most players don't need in order to shrink down the size and weight. Derived from the Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. Since this model uses a low gain germanium transistor, an input boost is included to give thicker fuzz tones. And to help dial in the all-important mid frequencies, there's a Mid control that matches the tone of the original BluesFuzz when set in the middle. The ingenious automatically adjusting bias on the Fuzz controls keeps the sweet spot at hand, and is especially nice for cleaner tones.

BluesFuzz Jr

Das TightMetal ST Distortion-Pedal nimmt das beliebte Amptweaker TightMetal mit seinen Over-the-Top-Metal und Hardcore-Crunch-Tones und fügt den beliebten SideTrak -Effekt-Loop hinzu. Dies ist eine Sekundärschleife, die nur funktioniert, wenn TightMetal ST ausgeschaltet ist. Es gibt auch einen zusätzlichen High / Low-Gain-Schalter, um moderne oder Vintage-Metall-Töne zu wählen. Ursprünglich mit Mark Kloeppel, dem Gitarristen der Death Grind-Band Misery Index, entwickelt, enthält er ein eingebautes Noise Gate mit einer "Chomp" -Einstellung für extrem tighte Stopps. Genauso wie High Gain Röhrenamps mit kaskadierenden Gainstufen designt sind, wurder der TightMeta entwickelt. Seine hinzugefügte Gainstufe führt zu noch dichterer, heavier Distortion. Der integrierte SideTrak Effektloop, wird aktiv, wenn das Pedal im Bypass ist ... quasi wie eine eingebaute A / B-Box.

The TightMetal ST distortion pedal takes the popular TightMetal pedal with its over-the-top metal and hardcore crunch tones, and adds the popular SideTrak effects loop. This is a secondary loop that only works when the TightMetal ST is OFF. There's also an added High/Low gain switch to select modern or vintage metal tones. Originally designed with Mark Kloeppel, guitarist of the deathgrind band Misery Index it includes a built-in noise gate with a 'Chomp' setting for extremely tight stops. In the same way high gain tube amps are designed by cascading extra tube stages, the TightMetal was created by adding additional stages resulting in thicker and much heavier distortion. The proprietary SideTrak effects loop turns ON when the pedal is OFF: it's like having a built-in A/B box.

Tight Metal ST

	
Amp Tweaker are renowned for their brilliant drive pedals. Establishing this reputation is not easy in such a competitive market, and to stay ahead of the game they have introduced a raft of Jr. pedals. Boasting the same amazing tones that we love about Amp Tweaker, these pedals are in a smaller, more pedalboard-friendly enclosure.
All the Essentials:
The Tight Fuzz Jr. takes the essential features of its larger counterparts, ensuring that no tone is sacrificed. The Tight/Normal/Fat switch lets you adjust the attack and response of the fuzz. If you want a thick and heavy fuzz tone then the Fat mode will provide, whereas the Normal mode delivers a full-bodied, chunky sound with plenty of character. Switch to the Tight setting to shelve some low-end, giving you a more aggressive tone that will cut through in busy mixes with a crisp bite.
As Versatile As You’d Ever Want:
A 60’s/70’s/Now switch gves you further tonal options. You can go from a classic Hendrix-style fuzz bark, to a more modern and saturated tone that works as well for rhythm tones as it does for leads. Essentially an EQ switch, you can also adjust your sound using the conventional Tone control, allowing you to brighten the fuzz the higher you crank it up!
A Germanium/Silicon switch gives you the best of both worlds. Often argued by Fuzz junkies, changing these output transistors lets you affect the warmth and top-end of the fuzz, meaning you will have no problem “tweaking” the pedal for the perfect fuzz sound. See what I did there?
Here's what Amp Tweaker say about the Tight Fuzz Jr. Pedal:
With the popularity of Amptweaker's smaller footprint JR series, we're now adding bass and guitar versions of our Fuzz pedals....introducing TightFuzz JR?, Bass TightFuzz JR?, BluesFuzz JR?, and Bass BluesFuzz Jr?. These pedals share most of the tone-tweaking features available on their larger counterparts, while eliminating effects loops, lit controls, battery switches and boost features that some players don’t need in order to shrink down the size and weight.
Derived from our Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. On the TightFuzz models, an EQ switch provides 60's, 70's, or 'Now' tones, and there's also a Germanium/Silicon switch to change the output transistor for warmer or brighter/high gain distortion. The same automatically adjusted bias on the Fuzz controls keeps the sweet spot at hand, and is especially nice for cleaner tones. And of course the popular Dry Low control is included on the Bass TightFuzz JR.

Bass TightFuzz Jr

Der TightDrive Jr reicht vom cleanen Boost bis zu mäßig hohem Gain. Er enthält ein Noise Gate und einen Tight Attack Switch. Mit immer kleiner werdenden Pedalboards wird die Nachfrage nach Pedals mit kleinerem Fußabdruck immer - das Resultat ist der Amptweaker TightDrive Jr . Dieses Pedal verfügt über die meisten Funktionen, die auf den größeren TightDrives zu finden sind und verwendet die gleiche Schaltung, während einige Features weggelassen wurden, die viele Gitarristen nicht benötigen, um Größe und Gewicht zu reduzieren. Abgeleitet von der Pro-Serie wurden der Tight-Regler- und Fat-Schalter in einen 3-Wege-Fat / Normal / Tight-Schalter umkonfiguriert, um das Attack von dick und heavy zu aggressiv und chunky zu verändern. Ein EQ-Schalter bietet Plexi / Normal / Smooth-Einstellungen, was dazu beiträgt, dass der TightDrive Jr einen Großteil der Bandbreite seines Pro-Series Bruders abdeckt. Zusätzlich zu den Gain-, Tone- und Volume-Reglern gibt es ein manuell anpassbares Noise Gate, mit dem du Noten schnell und hart abstoppen kannst. Und das Tolle an einem eingebauten Noise Gate ist, dass es verschwindet, wenn Sie das Pedal in Bypass schaltest ...damit dein Clean Tone nicht beeinträchtigt wird!

The TightDrive Jr ranges from clean boost to moderately high gain, includes a noise gate and a Tight attack switch. With ever-shrinking pedalboard real estate, a common request to Amptweaker has been for smaller footprint versions of our popular distortion pedals...introducing the Amptweaker TightDrive Jr. This pedal shares most of the tone-tweaking features available on the larger TightDrives, and uses the same circuitry, some features, most players don't need in order to shrink down the size and weight. Derived from our Pro series, the Tight control and Fat switches were re-configured into a 3-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to dial in the attack of the notes from thick and heavy to aggressive and chunky. An EQ switch similarly provides Plexi/Normal/Smooth tone settings, which helps the pedals cover much of the range of both its bigger Pro-Series brothers. In addition to Gain, Tone and Volume knobs, there's also a manually-adjustable Noise Gate which can be cranked to stop notes hard and fast. And the great thing about a built-in noise gate is that it goes away when you turn the pedal off...so your clean tone is unaffected!

TightDrive Jr

Hinter der Pedal-Schmiede Amptweaker steckt James Brown. Nein, natürlich nicht der legendäre Soulsänger, sondern ein sehr erfahrener Amp-Entwickler, zu dessen Arbeitgeber auch schon Firmen wie Peavey und Kustom zählten. Die Hauptaufgabe von James Brown bei diesen Firmen war überwiegend die Feinabstimmung von Amps, die er mit eigens dafür entwickelten Pedalen vornahm. Damit war der Grundstein für seine eigene Company Amptweaker bereits früh gelegt.

The Bass TightFuzz is a flexible fuzz, from great germanium clean tones to heavy silicon fuzz, and has a Dry Low blend.
