Featuring a pair of GT308V Russian germanium transistors and a 9-position rotary sub switch, the Fuzz Factory 7 Russian Fuzz dishes out commanding low end.
Overview
The ZVEX FF7 Russian is another variation of our continuing Fuzz Factory series. This version features a pair of GT308V Russian Germanium Transistors. The Fuzz Factory 7 features a 9-position rotary sub switch that opens the pedal up to an astounding new bottom end as well as thin, reedy fuzzes. This means the pedal can oscillate at much lower registers as well has higher ones. The fuzz works equally well with both guitar and bass signals. The second stomp switch turns on or off a passive tone Control which operates much like a tone knob on a guitar. Controls of the Fuzz Factory 7 are arranged in a circle around a clear Lexan window that reveals two rare germanium Russian GT308V transistors, individually hand-tested for perfect gain range and low leakage. They are illuminated by LEDs when the pedal is engaged.
Specs
- KNOBS: With the exception of Volume, the six main control knobs are named more descriptively than literally. They control various operating levels and biases which shape you a personalized fuzz.
- VOL: Controls output volume.
- GATE: Squelches noise after end of sustain. Turn to right to eliminate squeals, hiss and buzz, stopping just as they disappear, or use to tune in exact feedback pitch, if you're that kind. Turning to left opens gate.
- COMP: Adds attack characteristic when turned to left, which gets softer to right, and suddenly pinches tone when all the way right. Also use to tune in fat feedback fuzz, if you're that kind. Lower the Stability and see what happens to this control.
- DRIVE: Increases distortion when used as a "normal" fuzz, and adjusts feedback pitch and tonal thickness, if you're that kind. This control becomes meaningless when Compress is all the way right.
- STAB: Use all the way right. Do not attempt to adjust this control below 2:00, unless you like your fuzz soft and squishy. Use to control feedback pitch.
- The FF7 Russian uses a 9V DC power supply with (-) polarity on the middle pin (typical Boss power supply). Using the incorrect supply may damage your pedal. Obviously, you can power your pedal with a good old 9V battery, too. Current draw varies by setting from as little as 10mA to as much as a still modest 50mA. Made in USA, Fuzz Factory 7 has a lifetime warranty. Please visit www.zvex.com/repairs for any repair questions or more information.
