Deadman Fuzz MK2 | True Vintage Tone Fuzz

We designed Deadman Fuzz to be a dynamic and versatile fuzz pedal inspired by the grit and haunting echoes of the Wild West, as captured in Jim Jarmusch's film Dead Man and its soundtrack. It is made to deliver an expansive range of tones, from subtle overdrive to full-on powerful fuzz, making it ideal for richly gritty sounds.

Schematic features:
In the Deadman Fuzz, we specially designed our custom Si/Ge hybrid schematic. The specific combination of vintage transistors, with an unconventional arrangement of silicon and germanium elements, creates a unique clipping structure that delivers an authentic vintage tone with creamy overdrive and rich, textured fuzz. Carbon resistors, polyester film capacitors, and two matched pairs of vintage transistors work together to produce a big authentic sound.

Tone compensation and tone adjustment:
The Low-Cut knob cuts low frequencies and preserves high-mids. To maintain tonal compensation and balance, turning the EQ knob to the right decreases low frequencies while slightly boosting highs. Additionally, rotating the Fuzz knob (referred to as the “weapon drum”) to increasing/decreasing the gain, the nature of the tone also changes its structure. All these features allows to finely adjust the bass response, giving you more control over your sound and tonal compensation at different Fuzz level settings.

Our dedicated tone controls are designed to preserve clarity, ensuring that no matter how the settings are tweaked, the result remains musical and free from muddiness or acid brightness.

Sensitivity and dynamics:
The pedal is also highly responsive to the guitar’s volume knob, allowing you to clean up the fuzz as needed or intensify it for a heavier sound. You can easily variety your sound from clean tone to powerful fuzz. The result is an expressive, dynamic fuzz that reacts naturally to your playing style. It is one of the most sensitive fuzzes you could ever hear.

This pedal design with NOS audio component to produce a real vintage tone, has a momentary soft-touch true bypass with 2 modes(Classic and Hold) and hand painted art.
Currently produced in Caen, France.
