DUNLOP JHMS2 Authentic Hendrix 68 Shrine Series Octavio Fuzz Pedal
Instructions
This special edition of the Octavio Fuzz pays tribute to the legendary Jimi Hendrix with a custom finish that remixes prolific and celebrated rock artist John Van Hamserveld’s famous 1968 ShrineAuditorium concert poster art. Packed into an MXR mini housing, this pedal updates the circuitry of the original cheese wedge Octavio Fuzz for modern players and pedalboards with an extra mode of silicon saturation.
External Controls
- LEVEL knob sets overall volume of effect
- OCTAVE switch toggles octave-up fuzz on/off (indicated by red LED)
- FUZZ knob sets intensity of fuzz effect
