Teeth was a necessary evolution.  'Straight into amp' clean was always dull, especially at volumes correct for small stages, or late night recordings.  Overdrives added too much crunch, even at the lowest settings.  Teeth is the solution to the conundrum.  It is a low gain pre-amp / overdrive with a blend between completely clean and slight grit.  Use it as an 'always on' to brighten up old pickups or kick some colour into your signal chain or as a standalone overdrive - up to you.


New for the Teeth MKII, the Breath knob gives you continuous control of the high frequencies.  In the centre of the pot, the high frequencies are flat, and either way you can cut or boost to add colour.

The Teeth MKII also runs from 9-18V DC power, so you can choose the amount of headroom that the pedal runs at. The original Teeth had an internal charge pump, running the pedal at around 17V from a 9V inp

Teeth MKII

Teeth was a necessary evolution.  'Straight into amp' clean was always dull, especially at volumes correct for small stages, or late night recordings.  Overdrives added too much crunch, even at the lowest settings.  Teeth is the solution to the conundrum.  It is a low gain pre-amp / overdrive with a blend between completely clean and slight grit.  Use it as an 'always on' to brighten up old pickups or kick some colour into your signal chain or as a standalone overdrive - up to you.


Teeth has two sides, a very transparent dry side and an 'edge of breakup' wet side.  These are mixed by the Saturation knob, with full left being clean, and full right being almost only overdrive with a hint of clean.  Saturation is also a gain control; as you move to the right, it increases the gain at the same time as changing the blend.  The maximum gain is get by the Gain Stage knob, giving you limitless combinations of clean and drive.

Teeth

The Berkeley signal path is almost exactly identical to the original late 60’s vibe.  Carbon film resistors, Mylar caps, transistors chosen for very very similar or identical characteristics to the originals.  Some small key changes have been made in line with mods that were done in the late 60’s to open up the low-end and add more liquid movement.
There are 4 photocells, but no bulb.  Hand chosen Vactrols are matched one by one in a custom test fixture to make sure that every component works within a well defined ‘sweet spot’ range.  No guessing here.
