The Swiss Army Fuzz Face and Rangemaster combo.
The V3 is Handsomer with military green and all black switches. Even better: A mini preamp is now added to the Rangemaster side, known as the “Fetzer Valve”, giving you way more control over this Rangemaster beast. It’s the input stage of a Fender amp, with a JFET acting as the tube. Normally, the Rangemaster really shines as an always-on pedal, but when turning it on and off you'll deal with a massive volume boost. Now with V3 you can dial in the exact amount of gain you want AND attenuate the volume. No gain sacrificed (in fact, there’s way more on tap).
V3 also boasts BC108 silicon transistors (choose high gain or medium gain). Otherwise the fuzz side was special enough as it was and hasn't changed. Of course that includes the analog preset and the pair of GT404b (BART) Germanium transistors.
New to the Solarist? The Solarist is for the discerning Fuzz Face and Rangemaster player looking for a wide variety of sweet sounds at their feet. Selectable NOS germanium and silicon transistors. An analog preset allows quick switching between input (cleanup) and bias with the tap of a footswitch.
For the fuzz, toggle between a pair of germanium GT404B (BART) transistors, a pair of BC108 silicon transistors, or a mix of both. For the Rangemaster, toggle between a germanium 2N1308 transistor or a silicon BC108B.
Why 3 Footswitches? Right is ‘Fuzz’, left is ‘Boost’ (Rangemaster treble booster). The A/B footswitch in the middle brings the fuzz's versatility to a new level. It toggles between 2 sets of “Input” and “Bias” knobs, so you can create 2 sounds which are wildly different, and toggle between them.
The Input knobs (also called “cleanup” or “trimmer”) mimic the effect of turning down your guitars volume knob - ie. the Fuzz Face cleans up when turned down).
The Bias knobs change the character and texture of the fuzz. With so many possibilities: glassy cleans, gritty overdrives, huge fuzz sounds, glitchy gated sounds…and on and on…you’ll be glad you don’t only have to choose one.
One way to look at it is this: you’ll have a 5 stage drive/fuzz at your feet (Rangemaster [RM] / Yellow Fuzz / Red Fuzz / Yellow Fuzz + RM / Red Fuzz + RM).
Bass/EQ controls: The bass knob is an input capacitor blend, a versatile EQ control. The "Range" switch for the Rangemaster (RNG) toggles between 3 modes, original (trebly), mid range and full range/bassy.
The Pickup Simulator allows you to place this pedal anywhere in your signal chain without affecting the sound.
Quality components: Hammond Enclosure, soft click footswitches, Lumberg jacks, WIMA caps and NOS transistors.
This is a one of a kind fuzz I built by hand…the result of years of tinkering and delving too deeply into Fuzz Face lore.
