Ten years ago Gregg built a few custom fuzzes in an afternoon as a way of clearing his head, and they’ve been gathering dust on a shelf ever since. Unearthed seven years later when we needed a fuzz to pair with our killer UltraViolet vibe, that rediscovery became the catalyst for the creation of our new Series A line of all-analog pedals.\nNow we’re pleased to announce the arrival of Canoga, a tweaked version of a vintage silicon FuzzFace® based upon one of Gregg’s original three fuzz designs. Full up it works as a fuzz or distortion, but if you back the guitar’s volume down there’s a world of varied tones on tap for all different styles of music.\nIt’s All About The Sound\nCanoga is a simple pedal to use - there’s one knob for Drive and one for output Level - but the interaction between the guitar and Canoga’s input is critical, as is the interaction between it and your amp. As with many fuzz pedals, Canoga works brilliantly plugged into an amp with a bit of hair on the tone already, similar to how Jimi Hendrix and other guitar greats of the 60s and 70s ran their rigs.\nAdditional versatility comes from the interaction between your guitar’s volume knob and the pedal’s input. Traditionally, unbuffered fuzz pedals like to be connected directly to your guitar, so that the circuitry can “see” your guitar’s pickups and volume pot. Full up on both of Canoga’s pots and your guitar volume pot gets you the full fuzz experience, and rolling back the volume on the guitar opens up a new world of semi-clean blues, rock, Americana and pop sounds. The rolled back sound stays clear in the high frequencies and doesn’t get muddy, so you might find that Canoga allows you to convincingly play riffs that you would normally employ a distortion pedal for, not a fuzz.\nSERIES A\nKiller code only sounds killer when it’s hosted inside of an ideal analog environment, and even though we’re primarily known for our DSP prowess, our stuff wouldn’t sound the way that it does without our strong analog team.\nThe analog guys are always coming up with interesting designs, so we’ve launched the ‘Series A’ line of pure analog pedals to give them an outlet, and Canoga joins Fairfax as the second pedal in the series.\nThe designs you’ll be seeing in ‘Series A’ are intended to offer something different from traditional Strymon offerings, with no MIDI, USB, firmware or digital processing. These will be pedals that are unabashedly analog, which means it could get really interesting! Keep an eye out for more ‘Series A’ pedals as we go forward.\nControls and Routing\nDrive - Controls the amount of distortion\nLevel - Controls the output level\nInput - High impedance audio input\nOutput - Low impedance audio output\n9VDC - Use a power supply or an adapter with the following rating: 9VDC, center negative, 50mA minimum (sold separately).\nIMPORTANT! Voltages higher than 9VDC can damage the pedal.\nFeatures and Specs\nTweaked version of a vintage silicon FuzzFace® style fuzz pedal\nHigh frequency response stays clear when the guitar’s volume is rolled back\nWide range of gain for different styles of music\nInternal jumper sets the initial power up state, either bypassed or engaged\nSpecs\n100% analog circuit\nTrue bypass\nMono In\/Out\nDimensions: 4.53” deep x 2.83” wide x 2.33” tall (11.51 cm x 7.19 cm x 5.92 cm)\nPower requirements: maximum 9VDC center negative, with a minimum of 50mA of current (sold separately)","brand":"Strymon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51882051928349,"sku":"SN-CANOGA","price":317.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/2092\/9309\/files\/SN-CANOGA_a992a794-08d7-4809-addf-9238700203a4.webp?v=1781603695","url":"https:\/\/scarlettmusic.com.au\/products\/strymon-canoga-vintage-silicon-fuzz-pedal","provider":"Scarlett Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
