Magnetic Effects Double Feature V2
Hey, a new pedal from the depths of my laboratory! The Double Feature. Independently selectable fuzz and fixed wah.
Actually, after making it as a custom order for a while this is the new, updated official version. Brand new graphics! Updated circuit design!
£125 plus shipping. 100% handmade.
The Double Feature is a fuzz and fixed wah pedal with striking looks and stunning sound.
The Fuzz side of the pedal features a raunchy, original design fuzz that is powered by a pair of stable vintage Russian germanium transistors which are driven into fuzz by a specially selected and slew rate limited opamp. The result is a fantastic mid focused fuzz with plenty of output volume and sustain. Volume, Tone and Gain controls offer plenty of pleasing tonal flexibility.
The fuzz has a high input impedance and low output impedance which makes it play nice with buffered signal chains, wireless units and switching devices.
The filter side of the pedal is a fixed wah. Many classic lead tones were recorded with a wah left in one position instead of being rocked back and forwards. This is commonly referred to as ʻfixedʼ or ʻparkedʼ wah.
Unlike a traditional, large Wah Pedal where you have to move the pedal around to find the exact tone you are looking for when playing, the Double Feature allows you to dial in the ʻSweet Spotʼ using the Frequency Control. You can then access this tone by simply turning the pedal on and off using the Filter foot-switch.

Re: Magnetic Effects Double Feature V2
Great graphics there! Almost reminds me of the bitches brew album cover. How does the wah side work? Are you using an inductor?

That's a great-looking pedal, Chugs! Graphics are perfect. I get the "Bitches Brew" ref but it reminded me more of this:
