It can move from thick, sustaining fuzz through to loose, gated and splattery sounds without relying on a simple clone of a classic circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith six controls plus two three-way switches, the Cryptid gives you far more shaping control than a typical fuzz pedal, making it easy to tailor the response to different guitars and amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOriginal Wampler Fuzz Circuit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cryptid uses a mix of transistor and FET stages to deliver a broad range of fuzz character. The \u003cstrong\u003eFuzz\u003c\/strong\u003e control sets the overall gain level, while the \u003cstrong\u003eCharacter\u003c\/strong\u003e control behaves like a bias control, moving from tighter sounds through to looser, spitty and gated textures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChime \u0026amp; Tight Switching\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three-way \u003cstrong\u003eChime\u003c\/strong\u003e switch changes the high-frequency response before clipping, while the three-way \u003cstrong\u003eTight\u003c\/strong\u003e switch adjusts the amount of bass entering the circuit. Together, they let you move between brighter, fuller, tighter and more open fuzz tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIndependent Tone Shaping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVolume and Tone provide straightforward output and post-clipping EQ control, while the separate Chime and Tight switches work earlier in the circuit. That gives the Cryptid a more interactive feel than a simple one-tone-control fuzz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Wampler Cryptid Fuzz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal fuzz circuit using NPN, PNP transistors and FETs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: Volume, Tone, Fuzz, Character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-way Chime switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-way Tight switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharacter control adjusts bias and sputter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChime switch adjusts pre-clipping brightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTight switch adjusts bass response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for 9-18V DC power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentre-negative power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent draw: approximately 15mA at 9V \/ 30mA at 18V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a great choice for players who want more than one fixed fuzz voice. It suits psychedelic, garage, alternative, stoner, experimental and classic fuzz tones, especially if you like tuning the feel of the circuit as much as the EQ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOur Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cryptid is a really flexible fuzz. The Character, Chime and Tight controls let you shape not just the tone, but the way the pedal reacts under your fingers. It can sound thick and smooth, or deliberately unstable and gated, which makes it much more versatile than the average three-knob fuzz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable from \u003cstrong\u003eColemans Music South Melbourne\u003c\/strong\u003e with \u003cstrong\u003eFast Shipping Aus Wide\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WAMPLER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67639709794356,"sku":"210000078687","price":235.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/5386\/3220\/files\/PRELOVED-WAMPLER-Cryptid-Fuzz-1.jpg?v=1791741857","url":"https:\/\/www.colemansmusic.com.au\/products\/preloved-wampler-cryptid-fuzz","provider":"Colemans Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
