The Octaurus ltd is the latest entry in our Custom Shop's line of limited pedals.
It is a tour de force of vintage sound and feel.
The intricate turret-based point-to-point construction is designed around a batch of early 60s NOS silicon transistors either made by Transitron or General Instrument or both, similar to 2N335/336, complementing the Octaurus ltd's unique tonal character.
- A clear apparent octave across all pickup positions.
- Retain your notes' "body" all the way across your guitar's register
- When you clean it up using your guitar's volume knob, get just the right amount of the ring-mod type effect while still being able to play most double stops and have the fundamental intervals pop out.
- Overdrive-like definition of open power-chords without compromising tightness or girth.
- Full range voicing option for a singing fuzz quality
- Scooped-mids option for more industrial fuzz feel, suitable for tight riffing and an even more pronounced octave effect.
- Symmetrical clipping option for tightness and definition
- Asymmetrical clipping option for looser, more dynamic feel
*House Tip: don't shy away from trying the gain and tone knobs at full throttle as this pedal's strong attributes i.e. a strong octave and rich harmonics really shine at these settings.
