The Kangra Filter Fuzz is a true bypass, two-in-one pedal that provides a spatty and thick octave fuzz, and a psychedelic filter that can be ran independently, or with the fuzz feeding into it. This is no rhythm player’s fuzz either. Dig in and play dirty with broken fuzz lead lines that’ll rip time and space apart at the seams.
SNL Guitarist and fuzz fanatic, Jared Scharff, approached us about doing a modern filtered fuzz inspired by his favorite vintage fuzz pedal, the Kay Fuzz Tone. Working together through hours of texts, calls, emails and mailing prototypes back and forth, the Kangra came to life with plenty of grit, teeth and vintage vibe, as well as pronounced modern features.
Get two different styles of fuzz with the M/V Switch. In the modern position (M), you notice a more forgiving fuzz with longer and tighter sustain, while the Vintage position (V) feels starved with spatty breakup and grittier, shorter sustain.
The Kangra also has a versatile filter with Resonance, Sensitivity, Frequency and Envelope Filter controls. Use the filter on its own to add a unique shape to your sound, or flip the Envelope Filter switch and open up funky sixties style tones.
